Rules quiz

[palindromicbob]

Should have read some of the answer more carefully but

Easy: 9/10
Moderate: 8/10
Hard: 7/10

If it were a degree I'd have a first if I were trying to become a rules official I'd probably have failed.

 

[backwoodsman]

Easy 10/10
Moderate 9/10
Hard 8/10

Had to do "best guess of two" from the three choices in Hard on couple occasions. Got the penalty wrong for use of a non-conforming tee in the Medium category (Would that be one of the left handed tees discussed a bit back?)

 

[MarkHK]

8/10 Easy
8/10 Moderate
7/10 Difficult
Much better than expected

 

[JustOne]

Easy 10/10

Hopefully they are the only ones that matter... less than 10 and you really should learn the basics

'spose I'd better go do the medium/hard ones now... and I'm not telling my score..... :ears:

 

[mattdeeks]

Easy 7/10
Moderate 8/10
Difficult 6/10

More work required.

 

[pheel88]

Easy-7/10
Moderate-6/10
Difficult-6/10

Better than I expected to be honest.

But the rule I couldn't understand why it should be is ,if a ball is on the line between markers on a water hazard so some of the ball is on the fairway you are deemed to be in the hazard,if the same thing happens if your between ob posts my understanding is that the ball is on the fairway,so why the differance?

Was wondering the very same mate

Logically, I'd guess that the line is a part of whatever it is marking, so yellow/red is a part of the hazard and white marks the boundary of the course so is a part of the course.

Easy 9/10

The line itself is OOB so if the ball is entirely on a line defining OOB, then the ball is OOB. If any part of the ball overhangs the course, then the ball is in bounds.

I'd agree that the difference between lines defining water hazards (as well as GUR) and OOB lines is confusing.

Easy = 9/10

Moderate = 8/10

Hard = 6/10

Not bad but could do better.

how come a part eaten banana in a bunker can't be removed , but loose stones can be under local rule.
how come you can't move a embedded acorn if its on your line.

how can you have scored as well as you did if you don't understand the principles behind the 2 questions you raise????

Common sense I thought, just because someone stood on a acorn and embedded it, before you had a chance to lift it and now you can't move it . is that sensible 23-1 should apply I thought,
as for the banana skin , that's a slip hazard. 13-4cnote to myself always read things more carefully.:thup:

The first word of Rule 23 should give you sufficient clue!

As I said I should read things more carefully. The quiz gets easier the more I do it.:rofl:
