You mark where the ball would lie if it was on the ground, lift it, move the cart and then drop the ball as close to where it would be as if it was on the ground. This is a free drop.

Can two golf balls be hit off the fairway at the same time?
No, only one player is supposed to hit at a time.
What happens if you hit a golf ball off the fairway?
Hitting a golf ball off the fairway results in it coming to rest in a less than desirable place. It could end up in a sand trap, a creek, or in the rough which is the higher cut grass adjacent to the fairway.
When do you use a fairway wood?
Put the ball forward in your stance, and take your normal swing. Some people do however like the imagine a long low take away. With a fairway wood you do not need to necessarily hit the ball into the ground like you would with an iron, but you can do so.
What does it mean to say that a ball ends up in the rough?
It just means they have hit the ball into the longer grass at either side of the fairway. Playing out of the rough is a lot harder than playing from the fairway as it is harder to get a good strike on the ball and you won't get as much spin. And you can also catch a flyer which is where the ball flies of the club face and goes a lot farther than expected.
In golf if you hit OB how far can you move your ball away from the hole?
Out of bounds is the strictest rule in golf, and often the harshest. You have to replay the ball from the exact same place you just played that shot from. So if you are on the tee and hit one out of bounds, you tee it up again and you are now playing your third shot off the tee (This includes the one shot penalty). If you are in the fairway and hit it out of bounds, you replay it from as close as possible to where the original was hit from.
What is the difference between a fairway utility and a fairway wood?
The utility club, or rescue, or Hybrid is there to replace your long irons. That's why you see them marked as 3h - 4h or 5h that is to designate the iron it's replacing. The hybrid is the same length as your iron or just slightly longer. but it should be the same degree of loft. Hit it as you would your long irons, they are more forgiving, easier to hit, and better out of rough. Fairway woods have bigger heads and generally quite low lofts from 13 to about 23 or so. They also have longer shafts.
Why do i take a divet with my fairway woods?

What is a power drive in golf?
If you are playing in a 4 man scramble tournament a "power drive" allows each person who chooses to move up 1 tee box to hit. I.E. the men hit from the senior tees, the seniors hit from the ladies tee, and the ladies usually, hit from the first fairway cut.
If your friend gives you his ball by mistake and you hit it from tee block can you play that hole with his ball and go back to yours at next tee block?
Yes, it doesn't matter who's ball you use. The only time it matters is if you hit their ball from the fairway.
What comes after 3 off the tee if you hit this shot out of bounds?
Well, hitting out of bounds is a one shot penalty and you hit the next one from the same place. If you hit 3 off the tee OB, then the next one would be 5 off the tee and 6 from the fairway or rough etc.
