Donald Duck

Rule 7 allows the player to take reasonable actions to fairly search for their ball in play after each stroke.

  • But the player still must be careful, as a penalty will apply if the player acts excessively and causes improvement to the conditions affecting their next stroke.
  • The player gets no penalty if the ball is accidentally moved in trying to find or identify it, but must then replace the ball on its original spot.
