I don't understand how hard it is to compare the score for 18 holes with your scorecard against what you noted down.  In most cases they are single digit numbers, not something with 9 or 10 digits where I could understand somebody overlooking or making a mistake of one digit in-between.

If you are unable or unwilling to do that, you deserve every penalty coming your way.

When you sign a scorecard, you are asserting that you read it and the details are correct.

What's in the bag

  • Taylor Made r5 dual Draw 9.5* (stiff)
  • Cobra Baffler 4H (stiff)
  • Taylor Made RAC OS 6-9,P,S (regular)
  • Golden Bear LD5.0 60* (regular)
  • Aidia Z-009 Putter
  • Inesis Soft 500 golf ball

After a good night of sleep, which amazingly seems to remove emotion from the equation, I think the rule is good as it is. In fact, I wonder if it was a good idea to get rid of the DQ to be honest.

Oh Christ almighty… If this is anything like it sounds like I'm gonna be very disappointed in the ruling bodies. Be a professional. Put the damn ball back where it was and follow (and KNOW)
