When on vacation & using rental clubs I know they don't provide balls, but what about tee's? Thinking about what I need to pack just wondered if I should bring some? Don't want to buy any if I don't have too.

Thinking about 3 sleeves of balls, a glove & a pocket full of tees. Not bothering with the gps since I can't update my list anyways. Computer has a glitch & I need to wipe out everything golflogix related & start over.

Seems to vary a lot. Some courses I've played will have all the tee slots on their carts filled, but I'd say plan to bring along a batch.

Going to throw another odd question out there & maybe one of the rules enforcers knows the answer? There are creeks with crocodiles in them, obviously if my ball goes anywhere near the water they can have it & I will simply take the penalty. But say my ball lands near one sunning himself, I still won't go get that ball but am I allowed a free drop & if so where?

[moohassinny]

You are allowed a free drop if your ball is located someplace that is considered dangerous. Crocs, ratllesnakes and bees all count. Cactus, poison ivy, and thorn bushes do not. I don't remember the exact rule but I'd go under 1 - 2 club lengths from the nearest spot of relief no closer to the hole. With a croc, the nearest spot may be a good 20 yards away for me. Those things can move fast if they want, I believe. Golf is real fun and I like to score as low as possible, but I ani't gonna be a crocs snack just to save a stroke or ball.....

I have received free tees, even divot tools, but since these items are small you might as well bring them. + A good-size Bowie knife for the crocs!

[AngelinaLip]

If you are playing Palma Real no I don't think they provide tees.

It's one club length from the nearest spot that isn't dangerous - not NPR. If you're in a hazard and it's too dangerous to drop in that hazard - you may find a similar hazard and drop no closer to the hole. If that's not possible and you have to drop outside the hazard, then you must take a 1 stroke penalty.

I'm allergic to bees so I know this rule well.

If you where a pair of those Crocs golf shoes they won't bother you.

When I played the Kiawah Island ocean course we got really close to a gator and it acted like we where not even around. But I did have a 3 wood in my hand just in case

I will never ever wear a pair of rubber shoes like those.

I stay away from Crocs and Aligators....dont want to be an Amos Moses. My nearest place of relief just may be the next hole. I recall playing down in Hilton Head last year and was paired with a threesome. Someone shanked a shot towards the water and in the brush. They proceeded to look for the ball and heard some hissing in the brush and everyone took off running. Couple minutes later we saw a 12 foot 'gator strolling out and into the water. I dont take chances and glad to know there is a rule about the free drop.

Some courses around here actually have complimentary tees and ball markers.

down here in Florida there are gators on 99% of the courses we play, thankfully as long as you leave them alone they leave you alone. now as far as a "crocodile" I say screw the golfball and Run Forest Run!!

[ceagsoosy]

back to the original question I agree tees are small enough to throw a bag in the luggage to be sure you have some. of course you can usually find a handful on most tee boxes that are useable

[orerviche]

If its a nicer course, I cant see them not giving you tees Dyna. Most resort type courses I have played at have always had them.

I played with my brother yesterday and he asked me what color the flag was on the 6th hole - he's color blind. I asked him what he does in competitive play and he said he's allowed to ask the color because he's not asking for yardage. It got me thinking about other things that may affect us - like I checked the ruling on bees. Is there anything that you've checked the ruling on because it only affected you?
