WATER IN BUNKER
With all the rain we have received, the question of what to do if your ball landed in a bunker that has water in it has been asked. To paraphrase The Rules of Golf:
Rule 25-1. Abnormal Ground Conditions:
(a) Without penalty, the ball may be dropped at the nearest point of relief, in the bunker and no nearer the hole. If complete relief is impossible, as near as possible to the spot where the ball lay, but not nearer the hole, the ball may be dropped in the bunker where maximum available relief is possible. This could result in the possiblilty of the player and/or the ball still being in the water.
(b) Under penalty of one stroke, the ball may be dropped outside the bunker, keeping the point where the ball lay directly between the hole and the spot on which the ball is dropped. There is no limit to how far behind the bunker the ball may be dropped.
Hope none of need this information, but just in case...

Worth Mentioning...
Last week we only had 8 ladies brave enough to challenge the elements and actually play nine holes of golf. Needless to say, that wasn't enough to have POD play. However, we need to acknowledge a couple of incredible feats:
Jeannine Bird got a birdie on 15 in spite of Mother Nature...Way to go Jeannine!
Maryjo Aydoner also showed Mother Nature who was boss and had a chip in birdie on 18! WOW! Whatta woman!
That's the way to show you can't keep a good woman down!

SO TRUE!
A husband reluctantly agreed to play in the couples' alternate shot tournament at his club.
He teed off on the first hole, a par four, and blistered a drive 300 yards down the middle of the fairway. Upon reaching the ball, the husband said to his wife, "Just hit it toward the green, anywhere around there will be fine."
The wife proceeded to shank the ball deep into the woods. Undaunted, the husband said "That's OK, Sweetheart" and spent the full five minutes looking for the ball. He found it just in time but in a horrible position. He played the shot of his life to get the ball within two feet of the hole. He told his wife to knock the ball in.
His wife then proceeded to knock the ball off the green and into a bunker. Still maintaining composure, the husband summoned all of his skill and holed the shot from the bunker.
He took the ball out of the hole and, while walking off the green, put his arm around his wife and calmly said, "Honey, that was a bogey five and that's OK, but I think we can do better on the next hole".
To which she replied, "Listen asshole, don't bitch at me. Only 2 of those 5 shots were mine."
