I was playin' a round and was do'in so good , a par, a birdie, 2 other pars, and then I landed in high grass.............well 4 shots later I was out............scrapped my game but to no despair, but I could have used a drop !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes this topic has come up in the "Product Suggestions" Forum as an option players would like to see - particularly with Water hazards/Out of Bounds where you might "cross into the hazard" 180 yards from where you originally hit YET your next shot after the Lost Ball is from where you originally hit it - i.e. you "lost" 180 yards if you could have dropped at the point you entered the hazard.
Not sure it would be applicable to the "Rough" situation you described.
Thanks, AtlantaCoaster
I hit in the creek 4 or 5 times and it always puts me back on the tee.I been wanting a drop zone,maybe they added one.I saw earlier where WGTalex said no upgrades were added last night so I don't know.
If you fly into the water without touching the ground it makes you re-hit the shot. If you hit the ground first then go in the water it gives you a drop where the ball last hit the ground.
Atlanta,
You would never get a drop if you go out of bounds. Out of bounds is a stroke and distance penalty.
in the real game you can declare any ball unplayable, and take a drop anywhere on the line from which it came no closer to the hole. one stroke penalty of course. o.b. is always rehit from where you went out as soul said. thx JB
