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.
This is correct... except drop that ball in the middle of the fairway. You certainly WOULD have hit your provisional dead nuts 320 yards...
