Guy in my cart took off his shoes and socks to hit out of the water on 15
The guys behind us were probably thinking "do these guys know this ain't the championship flight?"

If there aren't white stakes, then I think you'd be within your rights to play it as a lateral hazard.
He was just saying that the property lines are OB lines, marked or not, it's common knowledge

First guy hits it about a foot OB on #13 on the right side of the green. No lines drawn, but its in between two white poles. I call it out and he disagrees. The other guy in our group says "if it was me I'd give it to you". I'm like, "no dude it doesn't work that way - it's either in or its out we don't do gimmes in tournaments". First guy proceeds to call BS and gets upset with the whole thing.... this goes on for 10 minutes, but I don't budge. Two holes later he yanks 2 OB, says F-this, then gets in his cart and WD's. He was pretty upset. What made it more ridiculous was that none of us were in the $$$.

saw several things I could have called today but don't want to come off like a bitch
usually stuff like putting stance, etc... you give the guy notice that "some people will call a penalty" on that. They usually catch on and stop at that point. They just don't know the rule.
I had another incident on #1 today where the guy hit his ball just outside the trap b/w the trap and the green where it was very sandy and the ball was in the sand. A lot like a fried egg but more breathing room around the ball. Well, ol' boy says "this ball is plugged I get a drop". I was like "nah, I don't think so I can see your ball all the way to the bottom of it. It's a shitty lie but it's not plugged". The other guy i mentioned earlier was like "It's plugged to me - take a drop". I'm looking at these guys thinking "i've got a 5 foot putt - is this good to you too?"

You played with some real characters.

yeah, again, nice guys but playing a round with your buds on the weekend and playing in a tournament aren't the same.
just reminds me that my experience today is a result of my piss poor ability to play golf.
never had any experiences like this playing in the lower flights.

Tell me this
Say you're hitting an iron off the tee and don't intend to tee it up
You just drop it on the ground and move it around with your club til you find the lie you want
Doesn't seem illegal, but just curious how the rules interpret that
You're somewhat addressing the ball and moving it with your club

that's a pretty technical question... but in these local tournaments I think it's understood that you can knock the ball around until you find your desired lie.
for clarification on your earlier question, if the ball crosses a lateral hazard and you can't access it - you get a drop. regardless of whether or not it ended up in someones yard.

Almost as bad as the dude with the caddy yesterday.

I did this both days. I don't tee up irons from the tee.
I wonder if it pissed somebody off.

I doubt it
I was just wondering when I saw it
I doubt you see someone do it on TV

Looking back at my rounds
I lost 1 ball the entire weekend that I jerked OB
I hit 2 bunkers the entire weekend
I kept the ball in play pretty much. Most of my misses were just really fat shots
Eta: I'm pretty sure iheart hit one OB and hit two bunkers on one hole multiple times

Yeah, threeputt and I saw him. I smh.
Alright, let's get down to brass tacks.
L'Augusta. Which weekend? What time? We're gonna have a party.
Then I'm takin' a break for a couple of months.
Unless I play well that day.

You should be proud of your weekend. I would be.
That course isn't easy.

What did they have to eat today?
Posted on 6/23/13 at 7:46 pm to BRgetthenet
If I only get one round in this week, I might be up for a round next weekend.
Posted on 6/23/13 at 7:47 pm to mytigger
Dude I couldn't begin to tell you the amount of clubs I saw touch the hazards on that course today... I saw all three of my playing partners touch the hazard with their clubs on the same hole!
