Ruling please!

[Deleted member 15344]

do what my wifes cousin did when we kept on getting driven over by a 3 ball,we had a 4 ball in front of us,we too were a 4 ball and we were keeping up with the group in front,after a few times the cousin went and had a word politely,bang kept on doing it,so he sent one of the balls back to them.
they marched up and shouting and spitting with venom poking the cousin in his chest giving it the big one,AND BANG cousin laid this guy out.the other 2 vanished back to the club house to get the pro,back he comes on a buggy.once everything was explained to him along with the 4 ball in front of us backing us up,he banned this group from the course.not the way it shouldve been handled but was extremely funny.

And you didn't get banned for hitting the ball at them and the punching a person on the golf course ?!?

He should have kicked the knob in the nuts as well, that may be worthy of a ban

The ruling as above is 18-1 and I'd read it that the score stands. Player in question whose ball was dumped in the hole was not aware it had been moved until after score cards were submitted. Being advised after card submission is starting to get far too much like the PGA and European Tours with rulings made hours after an infringement has taken place only thanks to TV footage.

However, the obvious course of action is to take ball of said group behind and ensure it is a lost ball thus forcing the player to return to the tee to play a third shot. Should slow the whole group down and also doesn't mean that the player gets a hold in one on his card!

I’d agree, however, that this is not the last word. The last words should be reserved for the players who were responsible for the trick and should include words like "disqualified under Rule 33-7 for a serious breach of etiquette” and “ the Committee will be considering what disciplinary action will follow.."

That was part of what I meant in my 'Committee to sort out' post!

The action of the 'innocent party to the trick' who was also guilty of a serious breach of etiquette - continuing to endanger the group in front - should also be considered imo!

The cousin spoke to them politely.
They ignored him and endangered his life again by firing their missile at him deliberately.

"Unfortunately, M'Lud, the aggrieved regretfully succumbed to the intense provocation and did something he deeply regrets, and acknowledges was incorrect, he took a swipe at the aggressor's ball in frustration.

The aggressor and his 2 burly colleagues then physically assaulted the victim, who, fearing for the safety of himself and his scared friends, took physical action to defend himself under intense threat of serious imminent violence. "
