Re: What\'d You Shoot Today? (Golf BBV Thread)
Triple,
OK you proved me wrong...
Generally as oT said, we treat it as a hazard. A couple of times on the front nine I hit balls into the desert, and just dropped a ball where it crossed over. It's generally a local rule that most courses put on the scorecard to keep play moving - if everyone really played stroke + distance on desert courses there would be six hour rounds.
This rule has the potential to get tricky when you hit it into the desert but close to someone's house, because we definitely enforce stroke + distance on shots hit OB. Luckily this doesn't happen very often.
