This one is the best… at our course there was a big argument after a “league match “. It went like this:
Player 1 hit his ball in a bunker. A league person not playing but just walking along with the group drinking beer went in the trap and moved the ball from a footprint to a smoother lie… for no reason. Player 1 then went in the trap and moved the ball again claiming the other guy shouldn’t have touched the ball. And moved it closer to the hole.
So the big fiasco was player 2 saying there should be a penalty and player one saying he was in a footprint and he’s allowed to move it.
They come down to the pro shop where I was working. I said, are you guys kidding me? Go find a fuckin rule book that says 1. You can move your ball out of a foot print in the trap. And 2. Show me where a person just walking with the group can move the ball. And 3, show me where it’s ok to move the ball closer to the hole.
Silence… then player 2 says “see…??? F{^#*ing idiot” and walked back to the bar.
