Dear Linda,
There is a green at my course where acorns fall onto it and
become partially embedded in the ground. Are we allowed to remove them before
putting?
Lulu
Dear Lulu,
If you can pick them up with your fingers with relative
ease, they are loose impediments, and you are permitted to remove them. If you
have to pull out your divot tool to dig them out of the ground, they are
solidly embedded and do not qualify as loose impediments [Decision 23/2].
Linda
