Course Info-Local Rules

LOCAL RULE

When a player's ball lies in a part of the general area (fairways and rough) throughout the course, the player may take free relief once by placing the original ball or another ball in and playing it from this relief area:
• Reference Point: Spot of the original ball.
• Size of Relief Area Measured from Reference Point: 6 inches from the reference point, but with these limits:
• Limits on Location of Relief Area:
• Must not be nearer the hole than the reference point, and
• Must be in the general area.
In proceeding under this Local Rule, the player must choose a spot to place the ball and use the procedures for replacing a ball under Rules 14.2b(2) and 14.2e.

NB During this period of preferred lies throughout the general area, scores cannot be submitted for handicap purposes either from general play scores or competitions.
