I'll post a picture and description tomorrow in week 34. It was red. Thinking about it now I may have had a drop from bulkhead. Which may have saved me a stroke or two since my drop plugged in bunker. Honestly did not know and knew I could drop in bunker but was not sure about raking.

Yeah he can play from the bunker but can't take it.


I'm assuming this means rake. You most certainly can rake the bunker before your drop.

Question about a drop. Water runs down the whole length of a hole and around the green. I hit into a bunker and plug. Ball runs across the green which is bulkhead, into water. Was I correct in dropping in raking the bunker and dropping from that point. What sucks is the drop plugged


I can't read.

Yea, you can definitely rake the bunker after you've hit the ball out of it even if you're intending to drop back in it. You can also "test the surface," i.e., take practice swings in the sand, before you drop the ball.

Drop was legal, raking was not.

Weave needs to learn his rules, SON!

He's likely thinking about raking the bunker if you leave a bunker shot in the bunker and it rolls back near or in your previous divot or footprint.

Yea, I obviously read that wrong

Any reason the water hazards were included in that explanation? I think that threw me off haha

Once your ball leaves the hazard, and doesn't remain in the same hazard you are free of any penalties until you are in the process of making your drop.

Shot 86 on the first 18. Drank way too many beers and fell apart at the end. No idea about second 18

Last day of summer and shot the worst round of the entire season. 97 with my dad and it was as ugly as I have played golf in 8 years. Didn't hit a single golf shot (was very drunk). One good thing is my dad and I met a middle aged guy from NO who is a huge LSU fan. As we get talking, guy lives in my neighborhood. That's more then rare being from this area. My pops and I went over there and drank beer from 9-until now. It was an awesome night and southern hospitality was in full effect. He is a West Jeff guy and played at Nicholls in the early 80's. My dad being from Houma knew a bunch of the same people he did. Funny how small of a world it can be sometimes.
