Greetings from Bellville | Tuesday, April 30, 2024 |
The committee of Bellville Golf Club is very pleased to announce that Werner Theart has been appointed as the new General Manager.
We live in times where there are significant challenges associated with the sustainability of golf clubs. As public open spaces, clubs also need to position themselves as part of the larger community in which they are situated. We believe Werner has the capability to identify and drive the initiatives that would make this possible. As a committee, we are also completely committed in supporting Werner in this role.
Die komitee voel ook dat dit belangrik is dat ons meer deursigtig moet wees met die initiatiewe wat ons aanpak. Hierdie nuusbrief sal ‘n belangrike rol speel om hierdie inligting deur te gee aan ons lede. Moet egter nie huiwer om vir Werner of enige lid van die komitee direk te kontak nie. Ons, as komitee is op die ou end net die verteenwoordige groep wat vir 'n tydjie gevra is om na die klub en sy lede se belange om te sien.
Vriendelike groete Die komitee | | |

25 Abnormal Ground Conditions, Embedded Ball and Wrong Putting Green
25-1 Abnormal Ground Conditions c. Ball in Abnormal Ground Condition Not Found It is a question of fact whether a ball that has not been found after having been struck toward an abnormal ground condition is in such a condition. In order to apply this Rule, it must be known or virtually certain that the ball is in the abnormal ground condition. In the absence of such knowledge or certainty, the player must proceed under Rule 27-1.
If it is known or virtually certain that a ball that has not been found is in an abnormal ground condition, the player may take relief under this Rule. If he elects to do so, the spot where the ball last crossed the outermost limits of the abnormal ground condition must be determined and, for the purpose of applying this Rule, the ball is deemed to lie at this spot and the player must proceed as follows:
(i) Through the Green: If the ball last crossed the outermost limits of the abnormal ground condition at a spot through the green, the player may substitute another ball, without penalty, and take relief as prescribed in Rule 25-1b(i).
(ii) In a Bunker: If the ball last crossed the outermost limits of the abnormal ground condition at a spot in a bunker, the player may substitute another ball, without penalty, and take relief as prescribed in Rule 25-1b(ii).
(iii) In a Water Hazard (including a Lateral Water Hazard): If the ball last crossed the outermost limits of the abnormal ground condition at a spot in a water hazard, the player is not entitled to relief without penalty. The player must proceed under Rule 26-1.
(iv) On the Putting Green: If the ball last crossed the outermost limits of the abnormal ground condition at a spot on the putting green, the player may substitute another ball, without penalty, and take relief as prescribed in Rule 25-1b(iii).
PENALTY FOR BREACH OF RULE: Match play – Loss of hole; Stroke play – Two strokes.

| Track your performance on Par 3’s for a few rounds. Not just your score, but where your tee shot lands. How often are you short of the hole and how often are you beyond the flag? | | If your target is 140 metres and that’s your perfect #7 iron distance, try selecting a #6 iron. Take the approach that you’re going to go up a club on the Par 3’s and compare it with your previous performance. | | | | | |
