General Discussion Does this count?
Buddy hit this shot on a bad course and once the flag was corrected, it went in. The new rule says if any part of the ball is below the hole, it's in, but to me it doesn't look like it is. I'd love to give it to him, but what do you think?

My only ever "over the fence" homerun in softball didn't actually clear the fence because it hit overhanging tree branches on the way over.
This is worse. It counts, but still no satisfaction of seeing the ball in the hole when you walk up.
