My wife plays in a women's league. Some of the things she tells me about what they say is in the rules. I asked her the other night for her favorite one, which was:

You can't take relief under the water hazard rule unless:

  • The ball ended up in actual water in the water hazard.
  • If the ball is not in actual water, you must find the ball, even if the ball is clearly somewhere in the water hazard.

I think she's told me ones much worse than that (because at least that probably was just a misunderstanding of what virtual certainty is), but she thought that was hilarious because it negates the point of having lines defining water hazards.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By DeadMan · Posted

      Day 19: worked with foam balls for a while. Going slow to make sure I’m rolling and twisting. It feels weird, which is good. Going to take more work, but I’m on the way I think.

      Day 39 (16 Apr 26) - Back to easy swings as the lead foot was overly tender from yesterday - stuck to some easy pitches with wedges and a few 1/2 tempo swings with 6i.  Was good to slow down and work on setup and overall alignment…

      I saved the ball and wrote the details -- "my first eagle," course, hole number, and date on it.  Maybe I should write the yardage and the club too.

      Day 8, April 16.  Continued pelvis turn drills after work today;  I've already spent 20 minutes doing this, am taking a short break (and have fulfilled the challenge for the day) and then I'm back to it.

      My Swing (saevel25)

      By saevel25 · Posted

      Played 9 holes tonight. Driver is hit or miss, but I haven’t practiced that at all. It was a struggle to get sequencing down for the arms and lower body. I definitely have to do my downswing wrist piece a lot or I just push the crap out of the ball. Pitching needs some work. Chipping was good, chipped in twice. Putting was fine.  Shank Counter: 2
