The relief of finding a lost ball.

Such a poor response and pretty typical from you

No need to throw around the cheat word.

is playing a ball you found outside the 5 minute window ok then?

Oh i forgot, silly me, because Tashyboy is a "character" it`s ok for him to cheat then?
As long as it`s an amusing story, all is forgiven.
As you were, nothing to see here.

Where is your proof that he cheated?

No it isnt, but if nobody was looking at a watch, then its guesswork and as long as he is happy and his PP's are happy that it was about 5 minutes, then where is the issue.

or are we now to start a mandatory stopwatch as soon as we arrive to look for our ball? dont forget the time is due to reduce to 3 minutes next year or whenever the proposed new rules come in

you mean other than saying he looked for 5 mins , didn't find it. then had one more look , found it and played it....

Played a medal today and after nine I was two over. Played the back nine and I was hitting it gorgeous. It just flowed, PP was having a good round as well. Stood on the par five 18th and they have now moved the white tees back another 50 yd, back to where they should be. Moved coz of storm damage a few months ago. Anyway I hit my best drive of the day, the penetrating flight was a thing of beauty. That was until it hit the tallest tree on the Lhs. I had pulled it slightly and at that moment in time Adele would of been proud of me. PP hit his down the middle and that is where I put my provisional.
We spent five mins looking for it and found four balls but not mine. I was spitting feathers. I said to PP am just gonna have a look down the Lhs past the tree. I was just turning back having walked 50 yd and given up the ghost and I saw summat winking at me. I walked up and it was the most beautiful thing on gods earth at that moment in time. I let out the biggest girlie squeal I have ever done. Which was an achievement coz I had done the same thing 15 mins earlier when I parred the 16th for the first time ever in a comp.
Anyway a smashed hybrid, 8 iron, and two putts later and am walking off with a par and 72 after hcap. PP shot a 73 with a seven on the last. Was winning my div and second overall and fingers crossed a hcap cut. But finding that ball was just massive.

Any other lost ball stories.

Proof enough?

How do you know Tashy wasn't just guessing on the 5 mins and he actually going by a watch found it well within the 5 mins

Throwing the c word around is just poor

 

[davemc1]

Oh Tashy, why didn't you just say four mins? You could've stopped all of this.


unless of course you had a hand grenade master plan going on..?

Sounding a bit wistful there - perhaps you have a secret ambition to be a "character".

He CHEATED when he played his found ball outside of the 5 minutes search time.
Black and White.

Do you class anyone who breaks a rule as a cheat ?

By definition isn't someone who breaks the rules a cheat? Not sure I understand your point? Just asking
