Friend of mine was playing in a tournament a couple weeks ago and had this scenario:

Tee shot found a hazard and he decided to play out of it. Hit's the ball which hits a tree outside the hazard but then comes back into the hazard and was real close to going OB. So the question is, if the ball would have gone OB, does a drop occur inside the hazard from the spot where it was played? If so, what if the drops goes into a location where the player deems he can not play it now? Would they then take the penatly for the OB and then another penalty for a drop outside the hazard?

Thanks!
