How to Drop the Ball After determining the nearest point of relief, you may stand outside the drop area, no closer to the hole, and extend your hand to the side dropping the ball from shoulder height. The ball may roll up to 2 club lengths no closer to the hole. If the ball rolls farther than that, you must re-drop.

Step 3 – After dropping, the ball may roll up to 2 club lengths no closer to the hole. 9.

If the club is modified outside the normal course of play, such as breaking or bending it in a fit of anger, it must be taken out of play for the remainder of the match.

STUDENT CODE OF CONDUCT
