Isn't the 460 the red headed step sister?
Wasn't looking
I turned a blind eye to a young 12 year old bloke in our group yesterday.
Marked his ball on the green with a tee (first no-no) which was near to my line so I asked him to change it with a regular marker.
So he picked up the tee and put the marker down without replacing the ball.
Blind eye turned.
Two holes later the club throwing, F Bombing and ball throwing started after bad putts. (ball throwing into the rough after putting out).
Then the mathematic errors started and he needed to be reminded of his correct score several times.
To be honest he became a pain in the arse and I will make every effort not to play with him again.
When we got back to the clubhouse we discover he has won C grade by a shot.........
Why can't you use a tee ?
I was always told you couldnt use a tee or a pitch mark repairer as it could be deemed you were testiing the green.
I may be wrong, but I asked him to change to a normal marker as the tee was in my line.
You can use a tee.
Pro's can't but amateurs can.
There is no penalty for using a tee to mark your ball on the green, but it is against the recommendations of best practice for marking the ball as per the Note following Rule 20.1.
Consciousness and awareness - awareness is being aware of what is happening and being aware of what is happening within ourselves while we are conscious. Where did I leave my glasses?
Cheers lads.
Always a font of information.
He still however didnt re-mark his ball correctly.
I use a tee when I play with Ray, as he has a tendency to pocket my coins.
Reminds you of the caddy from Happy Gilmore does he?

Shandy for you, diet Fab for Shaun and lemon lime and bitters for Damien.
Pop up protection by running a strip of black electrical tape across the top of the crown.
Borrow a demo wood from the proshop and play a pearler of a round only to be DQed by a rules nazi
Q. Is it permissible to add tape or gauze to any part of the club?
A. During the round, the playing characteristics of the club may not be changed – see Rule 4-2a.
Prior to the player’s stipulated round, tape or gauze may be applied to the grip of the club provided the application of such materials does not create a waist or bulge – see Appendix II; Part 3.
Tape applied to the club head or shaft is an external attachment which renders the club non-conforming (see Appendix II; Part 1a). The following are exceptions to the prohibition against external attachments provided such applications are made prior to the player’s stipulated round:
Lead tape may be applied to the head or shaft of the club for the purpose of adding weight (see Decisions 4-1/4 and 4-2/0.5)
Tape may be applied to the shaft of the club to protect it.
Decals may be applied to the shaft for identification purposes. These decals may also be covered by clear tape.
I don't get it. You can use lead tape (which would change the club's playing characteristics ) but not protective tape (which won't)?
All golf rules are stupid.
Champs weekend on the Friday. A very small, still growing plant/shrub was bent out of the way so that clear contact could he made with the ball.
It had no impact on anything, so there was no need to call it.
Ruling, Canuck.
What do you mean, improving your lie?
Is that it?
You can attempt to take your regular stance though, can't you?
If a branch snaps, accidentally or otherwise, you're penalised as well, right?
You can take your normal stance, you just have to take it in the least intrusive way. You aren't penalised if something breaks while this is occurring.
I was referring to bending a plant by hand when it was directly behind your ball.
Oh. You love your rules.
I've got to find a more enjoyable and easier to read version of the rules. Is the decisions book the way to go gents?
