Here's what to expect when you hit the links with the president, according to the SWAT-team escort and the caddies who go pond diving to save face for the boss.

I ask because many people I know are not even aware of all of the options for an unplayable ball.
For those that don't know, with an Unplayable you can drop within 2 clublengths of where the ball is - no nearer to the hole, play again from where you last played, or go as far back as you like, as long as you keep in a straight line from where the ball is lying and the flag. All drops incur a one stroke penalty.

may the best cheater win....
in a casual round for those who don't play by the rules anyways and non competitive purposes do as you please ....i can often have a tester I built in the bag or toss in a different shaft part way through a round to try it. I did have a 15th club in my bag a month or so ago in a casual , but with side bets game. One buddy , noticed and called me on it as i took his money, so I added the 4 strokes to my total score, handed back 4$ of the money I won off him as one game was played off strokes. i'll get my revenge as he is a master ball flufferLast edited by Weirfan; Aug 17, 2019, 01:56 PM."Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened "

If I were playing in a sanctioned event, then I would play by ALL the rules and I would expect my opponents or fellow competitors to do the same. It does not serve the game to ignore the rules. Look what happened to the NHL when officials consciously decided to routinely ignore slashing, hacking, holding and cross-checking, all in the spirit of 'just let them play'. Well, if it is considered bad sportsmanship to point out that someone else is breaking the rules, then that is not a good precedent. After all, a game without rules is just practice.

I’m not on any tour , I go out and play my game , my score is what matters to me not the rest of my group . If you are in my foursome , play by whatever rules you want , its a game that relaxes me . I’ll be damed if I’m going to stress over the amount of clubs someone else has , while I am trying to relax .
Spin it however you want guys , its a game and it’s fun . Try it , you may like it.

If you're playing in an event then everyone must play by the same rules, and those are usually the formal Rules of Golf unless specified otherwise.
If you're just playing a casual game, rules don't mean a damn thing.

as Benz says, in a casual game break the rules, make up your own rules, cheat all you want...nobody cares...then score doesn't matter at all...and its all for fun, which I absolutely endorse for the occasional golfer"Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened "

I never check my opponents bags, but if I did notice that at a tournament I would let the player know before he/she teed off. Why would I want to win that way and ruin the other players day? Pretty lame in my books if you don't say anything.Driver : TaylorMade R11s 460cc 10.5*
