Bunker shots
Question
Is there a penalty for hitting the wrong ball out of a bunker
Answer
Hello John: In the 2008 revisions to the rules, the only time you avoid a penalty by playing a wrong ball from a hazard is if the ball is moving in water. You must identify a ball as yours when playing from a sand bunker. If you play a wrong ball from a sand bunker, the penalty is two strokes.
