re: Fluffing your lie

should be rewarded for hitting the ball in the fairway
I’m not trying to be an arse here, and I definitely don’t mind when my playing partners bump the ball, but as I said before I look at it differently.
You should be rewarded for being able to hit the ball fairly cleanly from a variety of lies ( tight, bare, fluffy, etc - not talking about tree roots here).
Since shooting 1-2 strokes higher in a casual round isn’t hurting me any, I play them down. It’s has definitely made me a better ball striker, and even hitting out of a divot is easier than it used to be. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck to end up there so I get why people bump it. But if I do that, how will I ever learn to hit an approach out of a divot?
I just try to think of it as an opportunity to get better.

I've played golf for 25 years now, A LOT of golf. Played competitively for quite some time too. If I had to guess, easily over 1,000 rounds of golf. That I can remember, I don't think my ball has ever landed in a divot off the tee. Maybe it has. But it's pretty much a non issue. But somehow you're landing in divots on a regular basis? That's some bad luck.

The range.
