SIGL Rules

S.I.G.L. GENERAL RULES Some areas to clarify are Preferred Lies:

(Local Rule ) You may play a preferred lie, no closer to the hole, in your own fairway. Anywhere else on the course ("through the green") you must play the ball as it lies Plugged Ball: (U.S.G.A. Rule) A ball plugged in its own plughole may be lifted, cleaned and dropped without penalty anywhere on the course except a hazard. Note: You cannot use this rule to get relief from a bad lie; the ball must be stuck in a hole created by its own impact
Out of Bounds: (U.S.G.A.) One stroke penalty and distance. This means hitting your next shot from the same place you hit your last shot. Do not go up to where the ball when out of bounds and play from there. When in doubt, play a provisional Lost Ball not Out of Bounds: (Local) One stroke penalty but no distance penalty. Ex,A: If you hit a ball over the green on the 4th hole that you can't find, drop in the approximate location of the: lost ball. You do not have to go back to the tee to hit. This keeps play moving. This does not apply if the ball is lost Out of Bounds (White Stakes). Taking a Drop: (U.S.G.A.) When taking relief with no penalty (obstruction, etc.) drop within one club length, no closer to the hole. When taking a penalty stroke (unplayable lie, etc.) drop within two club lengths, no closer to the hole Hazards: (U.S.G.A.) A hazard is any sand bunker or water hazard. A ball cannot be lifted or touched in a hazard without penalty. (Exception: relief from casual water in a sand bunker.) A club cannot be grounded in a hazard. If a ball is unplayable or lost in a lateral water hazard (red), you can drop to the side of the hazard. If it is marked yellow, you must drop behind the hazard putting: (U.S.G.A. and Local) every ball must be holed out during the league nine holes. There are no gimmies or pick-ups unless you have already maxed out. All damage to the green, may be repaired. You get relief, no closer to the hole, for obstructions (sprinkler head), casual water, and severely damaged areas.
