THE QUESTION OF THE WEEK IS...

Dead animal in bunker

Larry’s ball came to rest in the sand bunker tucked up next to a dead squirrel. Larry of course argued that it was not right for him not to be able to move the squirrel that impeded a clean hit of the ball, as if he ever makes a clean hit. Scott countered that the squirrel was a loose impediment and removing a loose impediment would be penalized.

A. Scott is correct; the squirrel is a loose impediment. You may not remove a loose impediment from a bunker when your ball lies in the same bunker. Remove the mouse….one stroke penalty.

B. Scott is correct; the squirrel is a loose impediment. You may not remove a loose impediment from a bunker when your ball lies in the same bunker. Remove the mouse….two stroke penalty.

C. Scott is incorrect. Larry is allowed to move the squirrel without penalty.
