Two cases of damages driver on the course, seldom happens...but it a true story....

* Case A / Player A was swinging in his own garden yard, he accidentally hit his driver on the his lamp post and had a hole and dent on the face of the driver. He than proceed to play a few games and his driver performed even better than usual ! He cont. to play with it even his flights mate notice the damage and informed him about it, being a possible case of nonconforming driver!

True or False


*Case B / Player B was angry with his drive, as he walk back to his buggy, he dump his diver hard into his bag, the head hit hard against the metal bar at the back of the buggy. It damage by denting the face of the driver. he played two more holes only to discover his drive distance is only 180m (usual drive 220m). He than proceed to borrow from his flight mate drivers to play ! Is player B playing by the Rules ??

Not to sure about "case A" but I'd say false and maybe noncomforming.
As for "case B", that's false and he is not playing by the rules of golf. Well, assuming this is in a sanctioned event, but if it's just a laid-back weekend round, I wouldn't mind it

Actually, Zeg, if he and his partner together had 14 clubs or fewer (before the driver smash), then borrowing a club would be legal.

4-4 B "Partners may share clubs, provided that the total number of clubs carried by the Partners so sharing does not exceed 14."

Ok, in the event that they're playing partners in a team format, and the extremely unlikely event that they each started with 7 or fewer clubs, that aspect is not a problem.

Still, the player apparently played a couple holes with it after damaging it through other than the normal course of play, so at the very least there's a penalty there.

FT-iQ 10° driver, FT 21° neutral 3H

      Second Cortisone Injection Today

      By flopster ·

      Just want to share a quick update with everyone. I went to the range the week before last, even though I took it easy no significant pain occurred just a slight twinge when I swung my #4 hybrid. The most encouraging news was no soreness the next morning. However I think switching back to graphite shafts is definitely gonna happen, my mp15's were fitted with X shafts and having something lighter will help.

      Here's something to chew on. Not much to it, but apparently the ideas being tossed around.  Greg Norman - LIV open-minded about moving to 72-hole format - ESPN LIV Golf CEO Greg Norman said he is open-minded about the idea of moving to a traditional 72-hole format, though he explained that the Saudi-backed circuit would need to evaluate the impact of adding an extra round to its...
