Once again... talking so much when i am not playing.

We are glad that you did your self-reflection

I have the score card in front of me....

1. OB - define by whites stakes - behind green of hole 2, left of hole 9, right of hole 18, high mast netting along hole 5 to hole 8
also define by perimeter fencing , hole 3,4,5,6,7,8


maens..play from last spot with 2 strokes penalty

Immovable Obstructions ( rule24-2)
- rain shelters, pump house, buggy paths, service roads, portable toilets, light masts, RMUs, OG boxes
hazard markers, distance markers, itrrigation statellite boxes, sprinkle heads, drainage gratings, drainage sumps, bunker steps
- waste bins and sand urns
- All signages and rope stakes


which mean releief at nearest point not nearer to hole and not retake shots, correct me if i am wrong...what is rule24-2

U r right. U can take relief BEFORE a shot but not re-hit if u ball hits the lamp post.

if play from the last original spot, then only take one penalty, rite?

the 2 strokes penalty is an unofficialrule for social game where we hit from nearest point of entry at OB lines. This is when going back to the last spot could be difficult due to speed of play/being pushed by flight behind etc, so additional one penalty added to replace "the repeat shot from the last original spot".

obviously shud take a provi ball in the first place lah

PJ,

Bob is right. For eg, U tee off from box, OB, tee off with provision and thats already a 3rd shot.

PS, you are right.. OB, must retake with 1 stroke at the last spot. if unsure play a Provision ball

Eh folks, dun start coming up with your own funny rules leh.


The only exception is the flowerbed rule, the rest are still the same under the rules of golf.

Simple... if gang-ho dun wan to play provisional ball right? the player would have lost the hole lor.... no such thing as take 2 strokes penalty hor...

Bro, in KLJ flight, even with 2 strokes down, there is a chance that it will be a draw

Since Derek is here. Is it true also that if
My ball strikes a lamp post I am allowed to retake the shot from original position without penalty?

As Duffy mentioned, this must be specified in the local rules, otherwise as S70B mentioned, it is considered an immovable obstruction.

The local rules at MBGC do not specify retaking shot if it hits immovable obstruction or relief from line of sight from immovable obstruction.

Hence, if you do hit a lamp post, then you have to play the next shot from wherever your ball ends up. Also, no relief if the lamp post interferes with line of intended shot, only with stance and swing.

Thanks once again Derek!

Hope this clears up on the lamp post thingy.

And like S70B rightly pointed out, rules of golf apply in this game.
Only the flowerbed one, we are over ruling it.
i.e treat flowerbed as hazard if your ball is seen inside the flowerbed.

No problem.

Only thing I would suggest is that as long as it is clear that your ball entered the flowerbed, please treat as Hazard. There is no need to locate your ball inside the flowerbed.

They are gentleman, dun want to treat us lousy food, so they are choosing better food to treat us...

i like pepper crab....and red house's chili crab is not the best at the seafood centre. Theirs are more sweet and sour crab than chilli crab.

@ TD....what time is the first tee off ? need to see if need to take half or full day off

what if my ball's in the flowerbed and it's playable?

mbgc want to protect the turf and flowers bro, not suppose to hit from that area
