Had a situation yesterday. Hit a drive with a hook. Appeared to cross a river and then hook into the river as it bends .But was too far to tell whether it crossed the river or not.
If it did cross over the river and then hooked into the penalty area then I could drop on the other side, but I am not sure it did. If it didn’t cross the River then I need to take a drop on the near side. How to proceed?
This was a match and my opponent agreed to me dropping on the far side. But was that the correct ruling? What would you have done?
I couldn’t be virtually certain of either option.
