Linda, we have a flower bed that is bordered with metal edging on three sides and the out-of-bounds fence on the other side. Would you get a free drop from the metal edging if the OB fence would have interfered with your swing?
Lulu
Dear Lulu,
No. When you are trying to resolve this type of situation, you must ask yourself: If the obstruction the metal edging) weren’t there, would you be able to swing? If the answer is “no,” as it is in your question, then you may not take relief from the obstruction. The real culprit is the fence, and there is no free relief from an OB fence.
