Q.
If your ball lies in an awkward position for you, but other players in your group think you have a shot, do you have to play it?

A.
No, you can decide that your ball is unplayable anywhere on the golf course, except in a penalty area. (In a penalty area, there are always options to get you out of the penalty area without making a stroke at your ball).
Here we have Marcela Smith from @Girlfriends Guide to Golf demonstrating the lateral relief option for an unplayable ball, that will cost the player a one stroke penalty, but allows them to get into a better position for the player.
