Would you consider dropping a ball in the area you felt the ball was about? From there, you'd be hitting 4, as if you had hit a provisional to that spot, where the provisional would be laying 3? It could be cumbersome to go back to the tee to play the lost ball rule when you had no expectations of the ball being lost. |
Well, the first ball should cost you 2, the drop one, so you're lying 3, shooting 4. But for the sake of keeping pace, your 3 shot rule works fine, except in competitive situations.
