Rules
of the Game Water hazards are indicated by yellow stakes and lines. A ball is in a water hazard when any part of it touches the hazard. When your ball is in or lost in a water hazard, you have three options: 1.) Play the ball from within the hazard as it lies or under penalty of one stroke: 2.) Play a ball from the spot where the original ball was last played. 3.) Drop a ball behind the water hazard, keeping the point at which the original ball last crossed the margin of the hazard between the hole and the spot on which the ball is dropped. There is no limit to how far back behind the hazard the ball may be dropped. Lateral water hazards are indicated by red stakes and lines. You have the same three options above plus two additional options, again under penalty of one stroke: 1.) Drop a ball within two club-lengths of and not nearer the hole than the point at which the original ball last crossed the margin of the hazard or 2.) Drop a ball within two club-lengths of a point on the opposite margin of the hazard equidistant from the hole. Note that if your ball crosses a water hazard and lands outside the hazard, but then spins or rolls back into the hazard, you cannot drop a ball on the green-side of the hazard. However, the point at which the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard will be on the green-side of the hazard. For more
