Re: Strike Rule 14-4 Ball Struck More than Once?
Yes, and what did it finally take to get that local rule change? Certainly, the powers that be fought tooth and nail to keep golfers blamed for not even touching the ball. Maybe, more people other than the enforcement mentality should be involved in the reviews but who would volunteer to get frustrated by the brick wall mentality in control?
I am not opposed to most of the rules, I just think that they need a lot of streamlining to respect the imprecise nature of the game where trivial inconsequential situations are dealt with far too hashly. Cheaters will cheat regardless of how detailed the rules try to catch them... it is the vast majority of honest golfers that are needlessly treated with disdain by the too precise rules that need layers of decisions on top of them. Sorry if rule challenges are considered as insults to you personally. It is not personal.
