Blue Collar Rules Of Golf

---

The rake is removed and the ball moves. The ball is replaced but fails to stay at rest as it is on a slope and there is nowhere in the bunker that is not nearer the hole where the ball will remain at rest.

Blue Collar Rules of Golf

In such a situation the player is stumped - he can proceed under the stroke-and-distance option of the unplayable ball Rule Rule 28a or, in equity, drop the ball, again under penalty of one stroke , outside the bunker, keeping the point where the ball lay directly between the hole and the spot on which the ball is dropped. If a rake is in the middle of a large bunker, it is either not used or the player is obliged to rake a large area of the bunker, resulting in unnecessary delay. Therefore, on balance and from a Rules perspective it is felt there is less likelihood of an advantage or disadvantage to the player if rakes are placed outside of bunkers in areas where they are least likely to affect the movement of the ball.

Water Hazards There are two different types of water hazard — a normal water hazard and a lateral water hazard. A lateral water hazard is one where it is not possible or it is deemed impracticable by the Committee to drop a ball back in a line in accordance with Rule b.

In other words, if you had a body of water running parallel to a hole with the ground on the far side of the hazard being out of bounds, that would be a case where it was not possible to drop back in a line; if it was wooded or overgrown on the far side, that would be a case where it was impracticable to drop back on a line.

Stakes or lines defining the margins of a water hazard should be placed as near as possible along the natural limits of the hazard, i. Whilst it can be time consuming, an accurately marked golf course is vital to enable players to proceed with certainty and without delay.

Grass Cuttings Grass cuttings and other material are ground under repair only if they have been piled for removal.

10 things you should know about The Rules

Grass cuttings are also loose impediments, whether or not they are piled for removal, and may be removed by the player — Rule — but the player needs to be careful that he does not move the ball in the process. Try to keep grass cuttings away from playing areas. Bunkers - Under Repair and Flooded If an entire bunker is being renovated, the Committee should, during the renovation period, define the bunker as ground under repair.

This means that the player is entitled to take relief under Rule b which allows the player to drop the ball out of the bunker without penalty. Where a bunker is flooded, there is provision for players to take relief under Rule , but the player will only be able to drop outside the bunker with a penalty stroke. However, in exceptional circumstances, where certain bunkers are completely flooded and there is no reasonable likelihood of the bunkers drying up during the round, the Committee may introduce a Local Rule providing relief without penalty from specific bunkers.

The key is that the Committee may only do this in exceptional circumstances, it must put in place a Local Rule, and it must specify the bunkers that are affected.

See Decision for more information. Defining Course Boundaries It is essential that course boundaries are clearly defined so that there can be no doubt as to whether a ball is in or out of bounds. Different methods can be used to mark the boundary such as fences, stakes, lines or walls but it is not recommended to use a hedge or line of trees due to their irregular growth.

When stakes are used, they should be positioned sufficiently close to each other so that it is possible to draw an imaginary line between the two stakes to determine if the ball is out of bounds. You might have stakes positioned closer together in areas where the boundary really comes into play, compared to areas that are somewhat off the beaten track. If possible, bushes or trees should not obscure stakes. Free noise You have the right to move freely interference ie natural loose objects such as stones, fallen leaves or branches Except when both the interference and the ball are in the same barrier.

If you remove a loose impediment and thus shift the ball, it must be installed in its place if it is not on the green , and you are exposed to a fine of one stroke. Movable barriers Movable obstructions ie artificial movable objects such as rakes, tin cans, and so on. If the ball moves, it must be installed in its place, without penalty. If the ball is on a movable obstruction, it can be lifted, the obstruction removed and the ball without penalty thrown at a point directly under the place where he lay on the obstacle.

If this happens on the putting green, the ball must not be thrown, and is set to that point. Fixed obstacles and an abnormal state of the field area Fixed obstacles - are artificial fixed objects such as buildings or roads paved. An abnormal condition of the field site is casual water, the repaired area, as well as a hole, dent in the soil or trail done on the field burrowing animals, reptile or bird. Except when the ball is in a water hazard, you may, without penalty to eliminate the influence of a stationary obstacle or an abnormal state of the field area, if it interferes with the position of the ball, your stance or swing.

To do this, you must lift the ball and throw it within one length of the stick from the "nearest point of eliminating the influence" ie, the place where you can make the same impact as you would if an immovable obstruction or abnormal condition of the field site not hurt you , but not nearer the hole. If the ball is on the putting green, he is set to eliminate the influence of the nearest point.

You may not remove the effect of interfering with the game line, except when both your ball and the obstruction are on the putting green. Additional feature is available if your ball in a bunker. You have the right to eliminate the influence of obstacles, to throw the ball behind the bunker under penalty of one stroke. The ball is lost or out of bounds; provisional ball Ask as for Local rules m are defined field boundary. If the ball is lost outside a water hazard or turned off the pitch, you have to with a fine of one hit play from the point at which the previous stroke was made. You are given 5 minutes to search for a ball, after which, if you can not find your ball, or to determine its origin, it is considered lost.

If you do hit, you assume that the ball may be lost outside a water hazard or may be out of bounds, you should play a 'provisional ball'. You must declare that it is a provisional ball and play it before you begin the movement to search for the original ball. If it turns out that the original ball is really lost outside a water hazard or out of bounds, you must continue to play a provisional ball under penalty of one stroke.

If the original ball is found within the field, continue to play with this ball, and play the provisional ball must be abandoned. If you recognize your ball unplayable in a bunker, you have the right to act as above, but also throw the ball to be in the bunker. Local Rules We provide a complete list of local rules. More succinctly, they are published on the swift-cards to suit all players. Penalty for breach of local regulations - 2 penalty strokes unless otherwise provided by the Rules of Golf.
