RULES OF PLAY:

 

Rule 10 - Lost Ball and Ball Out of Bounds

A.      A ball which has been determined to have come to rest outside the defined boundaries of the course

can be placed in the fairway on a line perpendicular to the centerline of the fairway and even with the

point at which the ball left the course.  The point selected will be no less than five yards from the edge of

the green.  Two penalty strokes will be added to the players score for the hole.

B.      If a ball is determined to be lost; the next shot can be played from the fairway and even with the point

 at which the ball was presumed lost.  The point selected will be no less than five yards from the edge of

the green.  Two penalty strokes will be added to the players score for the hole.  No more than five

minutes, from the time the player reaches the likely location of his/her ball shall be spent searching for

the ball.

C.      If a ball is known or thought to be out of bounds or lost, a player has the option to hit a provisional

shot from the same spot to take a stroke-and-distance penalty instead of the two stroke penalty specified

in paragraphs A and B.  The provisional shot must be hit before advancing to look for the possibly lost or

out-of-bounds ball.  Going back for a stroke-and-distance penalty is not permitted.  If the original ball is

found and is in-bounds, the original ball is the ball in play.
