Golfers are caught cheating all the time and most of the time they break the rules when playing out of the sand traps.

The footprint lie could be countered if on the day the course rule was for a clean and place ? 🤔
These rules are great for courses with nice fluffy sand but play some courses and you need to break a rule or two just to keep your sanity.
I play with friends that don't cheat. If you play with cheaters its time to change who you play with.
Great stuff
I have a question. Watching the US Open and Rory hit into the grass above a bunker and they ruled that his ball was embedded and he got a free drop. Would this not be the same situation with a ball buried into a bunker. I know he got a drop in the wrong spot but he did get a free drop as his ball was embedded below the playing surface like your sand shot example.
This is almost a "tips" video, but seriously, if you're worried about cheaters, find new golfing friends. Most people play for enjoyment and not prep for the US Open.
Clearly phidip.2328 does not understand the philosphy behind golf. The rules are not there to control what you do on the course. The rules are there so you can follow them building a mindset of honesty that can be applied to all or your life. Also the rules teach you that sometimes you just have to bite the bullet and take life as it comes at you.
It’s only cheating if you keep a handicap or playing for something with your partner
Most of guys I play with in the social group nearly do all these you said and it never helps em win
Usually they take 4-5 to get out of the bunker
I never say anything because we arnt playing for sheep stations so if they wanna cheat they are only cheating themselves
by watching this video I went from a 15 handicap to a 5
You must really play with a bunch s +i+s and possibly you may be one of them since you know about all of these tricks
Thanks for the bunker tips…😂😂😂😂😂😂
Great cheat tips in the bunker ! I need some cheat tips when I’m in trees . Everyone is bad in the bunkers but I could make up to 5 strokes with some cheat tips from the trees. I love these cheat videos! My golf buddies are to busy drinking I can get away with cheat tips . 😂
You can take a ball out of the bunker for an playable lie but it's a 2 stroke penalty
calm down tiger, this isn't the PGA. Nobody should be this worried about the rules
Chunk it into the bunker again…and again, and again, and again 😂😂😂
I still love watching a guy using a putter out of a bunker because the cant hit a wedge.
I would rather thre bbe more sand behind the ball
Damn, you're giving away all my secrets 😂
Here's a question. if you take an unplayable from a bunker and go back in line to a bunker that is further away, is that legal?
If I carefully find the plugged ball and take my shot only to find it was not mine as I would have to have lifted it to identify it, have i broken the rules as I hit the sand before playing my actual ball.
Just discovered your channel. Think you're based out of Atlanta? Have you played Heritage in Tucker? Talk about unforgiving greens. Would love to see your reactions
Wow, this was a very educational vid on topics seldom addressed at address
You can tell he has a lot of experience against the local hacks' hacks.
If the bunker is filled with water, and your ball is in it, can you get a free drop outside the bunker?
at what time before your tournament round for the day are you allowed to check out the slope of the greens and the condition of the sand? Before all play begins ?
Great video. However, I'd be taking a lot of moulds in bunkers at my course. 🤣 Not sure I'd want to carry that much plaster of paris with me.
I never knew about these cheats, until now! Wink wink!😜😜
Who do you play with? This is a honor game, no doxing your opponents!
Thanks for the ideas Matt! Seriously though, I don't play serious enough matches where I care about most of these things.
Can't play out of a footprint but it sure gets frustrating when the footprint is 3" deep. If you play behind some bad groups who don't maintain bunkers you can get in real trouble.
I think I am starting to see why MSG is always playing by himself…
Golfers don't cheat. Groundskeepers cheat. Golfers make corrections.
Golf is a gentleman's sport not an anal jackass sport.
Yeah……most of the courses I play the bunkers are Ground Under Repair….pick it up…find a nice fluffy spot behind the bunker…take a nice swing and then chunk it back into the bunker… wash , rinse, repeat.
Agree for any tournament level play…. however, the grey area is a bit nitpicky…since it's difficult enough getting on the green…. especially from deep bunkers 😉
Who would care if someone brushed the sand behind the ball, not coming in contact w it???
