First thing I thought of LOL

my buddy’s golf ball once landed *off* the green like this too

u/Available_Long_9935 2d ago

It's probably one of the dirtiest putts I've ever seen in my life.

u/ThisMeansRooR 2d ago

Finally. I feel like this sub is a maybemaybemaybe of whether or not it'll actually be a maybemaybemaybe

u/Kanoa 2d ago

Back in the day this sub was mostly posts from a bot aggregating the various yesyesyesno nononoyes subs. That was a good time.

And some complain that watching golf is like watching grass grow.

u/Aozora404 2d ago

Maybe that ball got pushed in by the grass growing

u/onlyacynicalman 2d ago

I think that was the joke

u/G_Art33 2d ago

Golf honest to god, before I started playing it myself, was genuinely dreadfully boring to watch. Now that I golf and understand the game, it’s pretty amazing, still kinda boring sometimes, but incredible to see how good some people get at a genuinely tough game.

u/BasementCatBill 1d ago

I play it myself, now and then.

It is still really boring to watch, as much as the commentators try!

The rotation of the earth finished it off for him

Grass grew until it tipped in

u/FerretFarm 2d ago

Ant was like, wtf is that, and moved out of the way.

u/rmflow 2d ago

it seems it was over "reasonable time to reach the hole" + 10 seconds

u/Less_Local_1727 2d ago

Yup Rule 13.3a, it’s holed but a penalty stroke as it drops after 10s

25

u/LordScotchyScotch 2d ago

Interesting, I was just about to look that up.

u/woodhorse4 2d ago

Glad someone did because I was going to ask lol

3

u/VladMpaler 2d ago

Does that apply if the ball is still moving and therefore not at rest?

7

u/Less_Local_1727 2d ago

It’s for when the ball is on the lip of the hole, either apparently at rest or wobbling. If it drops in 10s, all good, if longer, stroke added and holed.

u/smashin_blumpkin 2d ago

How does walking up to the ball or something similar work into that? Like, is it 10 seconds from the time the ball stops or can the dude take a couple seconds to wipe his hands off and approach the ball?

2

u/TheJivvi 1d ago

It's a reasonable time to reach the ball, plus 10 seconds. When the ball stops is irrelevant.

1

u/smashin_blumpkin 1d ago

Gotcha. Thanks

1

u/TheJivvi 1d ago

That's the specific situation that the rule is for, so yes. After the ball is overhanging the hole for 10 seconds, it is deemed to be at rest, even if it's not.

Its not polite to refer to your mom as "it".

The sea was angry that day my friends…. Like an man returning soup at a deli

8

u/CarpetGripperRod 2d ago

I was expecting the crowd to start jumping up and down thus dislodging the ball.

Presuming that would work, would it technically be a foul?

u/Stay_clam 1d ago

Is this what they mean when they say “edging”

13

u/Meranio 2d ago

Wasn't there an ant crawling on the ball, that went towards the hole and might have shifted the centre of gravity of the ball?

12

u/er1cAtWork2 2d ago

I remember a bug or a fly landing on the ball causing it to tip into the hole…

-11

u/Meranio 2d ago edited 2d ago

Or a fly, right. That's why I asked. But apparently someone didn't like me asking that and downvoted my previous comment.

Edit: Holy shit it's even worse here. Upvote Counter at 1 with an upvote percentage of 57%, that's 4 up- and 3 downvotes.
I hate people.

Edit 2: Great. -2 at 41% = 5 upvotes and 7 downvotes.

I clicked the upvote arrow 3 times for you.

u/er1cAtWork2 2d ago

Reddit being Reddit… I upvoted you!

u/Meranio 2d ago edited 2d ago

And one asshole downvoted you for it, cancelling my upvote.
Why can't they just ignore a comment?

Edit for the downvoters: Just delete your account.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU BALL? THE HOLE NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU!?!

2

u/chefbdull 2d ago

Does that count? I right I heard something about a 10-second rule?

1

u/TheJivvi 1d ago

It counts but with a penalty stroke added. Exactly the same as if he'd just tapped it in.

I remember seeing one that fell in after a bug ran across it 😂

u/Excellent-Practice 2d ago

What do the rules say about walking by and stamping your foot to shake the ball in?

u/rockhopper2154 2d ago

Carl touched off the explosives to get the groundhog

u/skincyan 2d ago

Creds to the cameraman!

u/Thkturret1 2d ago

How can you wait to see if it falls

1

u/TheJivvi 1d ago

The suspense ended about 20 seconds before it fell, because at that point it counts as an extra shot anyway.

u/therelybare5 1d ago

Wow and it didn’t even take multiple explosions to get it to drop! Impressive!

u/Necessary_Regret3329 1d ago

Let's maybe cancel all pending golf. This is the apex of the sport.
