During a two man match we conceded a 12' bogey putt on the line of the partners 20' par one. The 12 footer went up to his ball and putted it anyway. In the end it didn't matter as the 20 footer 3 putted. Any rules issue with stroking a conceded putt?

Absolutely, they lose the hole when the first guy putted.  Essentially, the first guy is practicing on the green of a hole on which play has not been completed.  The penalty for that is the General Penalty, Loss of Hole (Rule 5.5).  Because his practice putting can help his partner, the penalty applies to his partner as well.  (Rule 23.8(a)2)

Thanks guys...

no problem, that's how we all learned.  This is one reason that in (semi)serious matches, I'll usually pick up the other guys ball and hand it to him when I concede it.  And if he says "Hey, I wanted to putt that" I tell him he's welcome to practice all he wants once we finish playing the hole.

For clarity, this penalty is purely for a form of play involving a partner. In a singles match, this would not be a Rule 5.5 breach.

In this part of the world, "two man match" would be more commonly interpreted as player A versus player B - a match between two players.

Papa Steve, you were playing 'Fourball matchplay'

No question, I made an evaluation based on the way he phrased the question, and went straight to the Fourball rules section.  But I agree, learning and using the right terminology makes searching for the right answer much easier.

I tried to find the rule, but was searching 'conceded putts'. Found a lot about them, but nothing on my situation, just have to be more precise with the language. Thanks again.

    • On my car I got the extended power train warranty. I do read the fine print most of the time. Though at now 37, my eyes aren’t what they were 10 years ago.    The problem with most of these extended warranties on electronics and appliances is you don’t register the warranty with the place you buy the warranty from, which I’ve always found strange. Unless it’s GameStop then you know Alina drops her Switch in the next two years and the screen cracks they’ll replace it. No questions asked.    You buy a slow cooker at Walmart for $50 and the extended warranty is say $6, you have to go through a third party to register your product for the warranty, and it’s pretty damn annoying. Target is the same way. Anything you buy the extended protection on you have to go through a third party.    Why do retailers go through a “broker” for warranties? Because they don’t wanna deal with it? They make me talk to someone from another country, that I can barely understand, when I need my warranty fulfilled.   Sorry for the rant.
    • You may be able to find a regular flex Blueboard on the second hand market. I’m little more than half your age so I swing a shaft that launches pretty low so I don’t have a lot of experience with Regular flex (other than when I try to hit it I miss way to the left).    There are other shafts, such as the newer Ping Alta that I’ve heard good things about. And one that no one talks about. The Jupiter shaft. You can get this shaft for a $100 with a grip and your Ping adapter installed. I was talking to the golf manager at Dick’s Sporting Goods here and he has one in his driver and has nothing but good things to say about it. I thought about getting one for my Paradym Triple Diamond to play it a little shorter, but haven’t pulled the trigger yet.

    • Meanwhile, another old Tour Edge guy switches to Callaway for this season. I have a different problem, course dependent set-ups. What I’m wondering is if @dragonsmhas the 8 iron set 5-PW, AW, GW or just 5-PW, GW. Because the PW is 42°, AW 47°, and GW 52°. Because that could potentially be a gap there. The 5-iron to 6-iron length jump is 5/8” instead of 1/2” so you should be careful of that.    @WUTiger the problem most people have with 3-woods is they don’t play them far enough back into their stance. And they usually don’t have enough loft and the shaft is too long. So 3HL, 4 or 5-wood is probably better for most golfers. I do the “Frankenwood” approach. I have both the 3+ and 5 woods. I typically will either add two degrees to the 3+ on 6600 yards or longer courses, or take a degree off the 5-wood on shorter courses than 6300 or so, and use the 5-wood shaft for both. I don’t usually find a situation where I need both the 3 and 5 wood on a course. I don’t play from 7000 yards it’s no fun. Edit: I mostly agree with @WUTiger on the gapping, although a lot of the newer even fixed hosel fairway woods are made better than what we had when we were playing the old Exotics XRails.
