Picture this, large trees line the RHS of the fairway, beyond that is a lateral hazard ( red staked).Off the T ball struck towards trees and clatter clatter, proceed to find, cannot.
Now am I allowed to presume under rule 26 that the ball struck towards the hazard not found, I must reload at the T or
how can I be certain from 220yds that my ball is lost, when I get there and cannot find I will take the option of saying ball lost in hazard and take one penalty drop at point of entry
Remember you cannot hit proviosional ball if you think your ball is lost in hazard
I have been told by long serving members that I must reload at T as I cannot be sure that is lost in hazard, do I have to prove to them that it actually went into hazard from 200 yds
What would you do,reload from T or say my ball went towards hazard and I am entitled to dop there?
