If your ball goes in a rabbit hole, you get relief, and let's face facts, it's the same rabbit hole for everyone, so why allow relief from the hole when anyone could have found the same hole? It that fair? Be it fair or not, it's the rule.
Great points OnePutt lets just putt with grass and mud all over the ball , I guess they did that back in the day , we should be able to do that too . Lets just play off sprinkler heads why were at it
