Rules Help!

[justhitthething]

This particular set of rules is often confusing. I played a guy last week who hit his ball into trees, played a provisional into the middle of the fairway. He then found his original ball. He declared it unplayable and tried to proceed as follows. Either, drop under penalty within 2 club lengths NNTH. Drop as far back as you like keeping the point where the ball landed between you and the hole, or replay a ball from the original place.

He doesn't have to go back to the original spot to replay the ball after declaring it unplayable. He can take either of the other two options under penalty of one stroke.

Sorry. I thought thats what I meant when I said 'either or'

- giving you a fair chance of ******** up that shot too!

Apologies Mr. Moderator - I thought I had enough ***s in my original post! (And it didn't begin with "F")

Obviously a sensitive lot on here!

I'm not over sensitive, or a prude either, and working in a factory I can swear with the best of them. But this is an open forum, and we do have a fare few young members.

This is copy and pasted straight from the forum guidelines, so if you have a problem, please take it up with Admin.

* What is not acceptable...
1 Posts that contain any sexist, racist or homophobic content
2 Posts or PMs that are abusive to another forum member
3 Posts that contain swearing. I feel this also includes the use of asterisked out swear words. I think everyone on here is smart enough to be able to find non offensive ways of expressing themselves without having to resort to swearing and offending any other former.
4 Posts that are spam - i.e. posts or messages that are purely posted in a bid to trying to promote or sell services or products.
5 Deliberately posting off topic messages in the wrong forum.
6 Using the for sale forum as an ebay style shop. The for sale forum is for the sale of your own kit you no longer want.
