Default Re: Ball taken - ruling?

If you saw the player pick up the ball, you can drop in the approximate spot with no penalty.

BTW not hitting into a group in front of you is pretty easy. It's not like the extra couple of minutes is going to matter...you won't be finishing any sooner.

Sometimes you just don't realize that they're in range. A few years ago I was playing my first round of the season and had 250 into the wind on a wet course. Usually on good days I may be able to roll a three wood 250. That day I FLEW the ball pin-high. Luckily I pulled the ball just left of the green where it almost plugged. How I hit a three wood into the wind I'll never know (a slight pull helped). A mistake on my part apparently...but sometimes you just hit the screws better than you ever thought you could.
