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.
