  1. cool. thanks. thanks for the tip on water temperature. will try washing w/ cool water & see if that will help with the wrinkle. thanks again.
  2. Nike Dri Fit Golf Shorts: Care & Counterfeit Question Just got some Nike Dri Fit Golf Shorts. Have a couple of concern & question. 1. The product is 95% polyester & 5% spandex. I normally wash my golf shirts, the same materials, in with my other clothes but hang the shirt to dry & it usually comes out good in terms of not being wrinkled or not shrinking. The shorts are a little wrinkled when i try to hang them to dry like the shirts. It says cool iron but what is "cool iron"? i know polyester material won't do so well with hot stuff. Can you let me know the proper way to care for them or how you do it? 2. Are there such things as counterfeit Nike Dri Fit Golf Shorts? If so, what do I look for in terms of them being counterfeit? Thanks in advance for your input.
  3. thanks for the answer that help me on the 2nd ex. "...nearest point of relief from the obstruction must not be in a hazard..." thank you for your understanding in helping me to understand
  4. I have a Taylormade Catalina Cart Bag. I liked the bag but the bag keeps falling forward causing the bag to drop & messing up my club. The bag is laid on a flat surface inside my garage. It doesn't happen all the time but has happened a couple of time already. Is there a device or gadget that I can put on the bottom of the bag to prevent the leaning & rocking of the bag causing the bag to be unbalance & drop? Thanks in advance.
  5. What is a cart path doing so close to a sand trap? And how many different variations of this instance have you actually run into? this didn't happen, just an example so i can understand better i am just trying to understand "nearest point of relief". some understand through words & some understand thru pictures & what not. sorry, i am not fast like you. thank you.
  6. Thanks again for all input... Diagram: flag/hole Left Side sand trap sand trap sand trap ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (ball) sidewalk sidewalk sidewalk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Right Side no mulch but dirt & some grass, like backyard kind of grass Nearest Point of Relief...??? so in this example, you will be dropping the ball in the sand trap? The balls lie on the sidewalk but is closer to the left side of the sidewalk. The fairway sand trap is a big one, lets say. so nearest point of relief is the sand trap to where you can drop the ball? also, what if the ball lies on the sidewalk nearer to the right side? in this case, you drop on the right side of sidewalk? thanks again.
  7. Thanks everyone for their input... so what's the final verdict?? drop on left side of sidewalk in the mulch that is closer to the hole or drop on the right side of the sidewalk not in the mulch away from the hole?? Diagram: flag/hole Left Side mulch - ball lies against sidewalk on mulch ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ sidewalk sidewalk sidewalk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Right Side no mulch but dirt & some grass, like backyard kind of grass
  8. Diagram: flag/hole mulch - ball lies against sidewalk on mulch ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ sidewalk sidewalk sidewalk ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- no mulch but dirt & some grass, like backyard kind of grass I'm a right hander so the stance doesn't put me on sidewalk but my ball is partially on sidewalk which give me free relief. so u suggesting i drop the ball on the right side of the sidewalk out of the mulch lie?
  9. lets say you r a right hander. there is a sidewalk. the ball is on the left side of the sidewalk. the tree mulch is right against the left side of the sidewalk & the ball is right on the mulch & touching the edge of the left side of sidewalk. the flag is on the left side of the sidewalk. so what you are saying is i should drop on the right side of the sidewalk out of the mulch lie & onto the ground which is away from the hole/flag?
  10. Ruling: Golf Balls lies on tree mulch & sidewalk My golf ball lies on tree mulch & sidewalk. More golf ball on the mulch & the edge of the ball on sidewalk. I know that you can get a free drop if your stance is on the sidewalk. Can I get a ruling on if your golf balls in in the mulch & the edge of the ball on the sidewalk? I am a right hander & in the situation stated above, my stance is NOT on the sidewalk. At that time, my friend & I was debating on how it should be played. My friend states that since any part of the golf ball is on the sidewalk, you get free relief. Now, what we don't agree on is where to drop the ball. He states that i need to drop the ball on the mulch but no closer to the holes so the ball is not on the sidewalk or against it. I suggested that i drop the ball on the other side of the sidewalk but the other side is not a mulch lie but one of those dirt & some grass lie. He states that though what i suggested is correct but i improve my lie by moving my ball out of the mulch & onto ground. Mulch - shredded wood that are place around the bottom of the tree. you may see them in red, black, brown, etc. color Thanks in advance for your input
  11. Thanks all again for their input. Will look at those & see which one will work for me. Thanks again.
  12. Best Ball Liner : To Mark Line on Ball for Putting Does anyone have any good recommendation for a ball liner? I would like one that I will not have problem putting a line on the ball for putting. I have read some of the ball liner equipment where the ball would move or slide making it difficult to put a straight line or where you can only put a thin line on the ball as opposed to a thick solid line. So I am looking for one that I can put a thick solid ( not way thick or anything) straight line on the ball for putting. Please provide brand name & place where I can get them. Thanks in advance.
  13. thanks all for your input...so this is what i have so far...
  14. Hi, Got a couple of questions regarding to rules of the game. 1. Do you get relief if your ball rest near a fence/gate that impedes your swing? 2. Can you mark your ball if your ball lies 1/4 on green & 3/4 on fringe? 3. If your ball is plugged on the fringe or the fairway, do you get relief? Lift, clean & place rules is NOT enforced. 4. Can you remove a leaf inside a bunker shot? The leaf is covering your ball. 5. Is your ball in bound if you hit the ball out of bound & hit the fence & hop back in bound? 6. If bunker is wet & unplayable, do you get relief if you hit it in the bunker? If you do, where can you drop ball? Thanks in advance.
  15. ..."the handle"...?? this is the handle by the shoulder strap you are referring to, right?? if you wrap it around there, wouldn't the bag be facing sideways? thanks again.
