What's the most ludicrous application of a rule anyone has seen where the
intent of the rule has been completely forgotten or deliberately ignored in the application of that rule to gain advantage ? Personally ..... local rule on a hole at my club alongside railway states on a sign at the tee that any player making a shot whilst a train is passing receives a two point penalty. Fine off the tee but I did hear of someone claiming victory on the hole in matchplay because their opposition putted out whilst a train was passing ! Do we not forget sportsmanship too often ?

I would really like to have a photograph of that sign. Could you post one on the web somewhere? |

Could you >post one on the web somewhere? Maybe they don't want people to hit while the train is going by in the hopes that a bad shot will bounce off the train and stay in bounds. |
