I have a for instance from my last round this past Saturday....

Played a links style course for the first time and on hole #11, a par 5, I pull my drive into the left rough. I look at the scorecard for the layout of the hole and its a slight dogleg left. I am at least 280 to the green and can't see anything from my lie due to a small hill in front of me.
I take out my 4 hybrid to hit a nice easy shot out of the rough to hopefully about 100 yds or less into the green. I aim over and between 2 trees in my line and hit the shot I was hoping for from that lie.
Get over the hill to look for my ball and find nothing......except for a small stand of trees next to a sand trap about 80 yds from the green on the left side of the fairway. Had no idea it was there. If anything my ball should be in the sand trap......nada. Gone. Only thing we can figure after 5 minutes of looking is that it must have hit one of the small trees and shot off somewhere.
Worst part is that I was playing the Srixon day glo yellow balls.........still couldn't find it. Penalty for lost ball as well....
Next time at that course I know what's up there and won't even try to attempt that shot.
