THE MOST USEFUL RULE FOR A GOLFER 

Everyone:
You might ask “How can any Rule be useful. It seems to me every Rule comes with a one or two stroke penalty?” 

This is true but one special Rule that does sadly come with a one stroke penalty can often save your round and prevent those dreaded blowup holes of double or triple bogey. 

This is Rule 19, Unplayable Ball. 

For a mere one stroke penalty you can declare your ball unplayable anywhere on the course, except in a Penalty area.  It is totally up to you, if you have a difficult lie use this Rule

If your ball lies close to a tree, on a tree root, in a divot take your medicine of a one stroke penalty and have a chance of a much better next shot.
