OOB Rule does matter!

I�m sure it must not be the case, but I�m starting to wonder if my playing partners and I are the only people actually taking notice of the Out Of Bounds rules. Every time I play, I always encounter a player from another fairway playing their ball on the wrong side of the line of white marker posts.

The last time I played Ruxley Park in Kent, I was waiting to tee off on the 12th when a player appeared out of the woods from the fairway on the right and walked to his ball in the middle of my fairway and hit it over the trees back to his fairway. Not only had he walked through a line of white OOB markers to play this shot, he was actually playing his ball from the wrong course! He was supposed to be playing the 17th on Cray Valley which runs parallel to the 12th at Ruxley Park.

Maybe I take it too seriously.

Get in there and play it, you wuz.

I always play off other fairways if I use my driver off the tee, no other way to play it when you have a slice as bad as mine

Some courses it's actually easier and shorter to go the scenic route.  I did it once at Wokefield, but that was only because I wanted to say hello to Wayne.
