So what did he say to you then, or what did he do?

Also he opened himself up for it by having a quick look himself. If he didn't want to find it he should of just walked on by, there's a song in there somewhere!

A bit of an argument that I was wrong and that he'd declared the ball lost. When I pointed out that you couldn't declare a ball lost, he just went off on one that I shouldn't have looked when he told me nor to and it wasn't sporting what I'd done. Well, that's the clean version.
I just told him that he shouldn't have declared a provisional if he didn't want to.find the first ball and he couldn't have it both.ways.
To.rub salt in the wound I flushed my bunker shot through the green, chipped back, two putted for a five and he three stabbed for a six.

If it were a hole in one (three), the provisional ball becomes the ball in play when it is picked out of the cup.
Can you imagine the comedy scene? Prov shot, hole in one. Players stand and look at each other for a moment. Then both dump everything, with player A sprinting 230 yards to the green to pick the ball out of the cup, and play B sprinting to the gorse to find original!
I would just like to say there is no way i could sprint 230 yards, so for that reason i will not be player A.
I have this vision of two figures lumbering up the fairway, shedding clubs left and right in the hopes that the opponent will trip on one . . .
