Think you need to find a new golf course for these videos ….dont see why you need to support the Orange Baboon
Excellent explanation of some bunker rules to keep in mind. Best thing to do is to not go in one. Cheers.
13:20 The most egregious use of 15.1 that I can recall was at the 1999 Phoenix Open when Tiger Woods used the help of a crowd of spectators to move a one ton boulder that his ball was behind. It caused quite a controversy, but was ruled legal by the U.S.G.A.. Today the boulder has a plaque on it commemorating the event. B-T-W, Tiger went on to birdie that hole.
15:22 Should you mark the ball before moving a moveable obstruction, or is it OK to place the ball approximately where it was before it rolled away?
