Rule 7-2 provides a decision, a player must not make a practice stroke during the play of one hole.
In between two holes they may not take a practice stroke, but may practice chipping or putting on or near the previous putting green, the practice putting green or the teeing ground. But no stroke may be taken from a hazard.
In Matchplay you are allowed to practice after a completed hole, only your short game, this includes pitching and putting, but bunker shots or shots from hazards are not allowed. You can practice like this as long as it does not cause an undue delay to play. You are not allowed to practice fuller swing shots. Matchplay differs from strokeplay in one unique way. Before a matchplay round you are allowed to practice on the course, in strokeplay this is not allowed. So, before a matchplay you can play a couple of holes, or pitch and putt to any green, if you did so in strokeplay you would be disqualified.
Practice putting the ball in the hole. He did this his entire life.
This is called a putting green. It can also be called a practice green.
No, this is not allowed, this would be known as testing the putting surface before taking your stroke and would come with a two stroke penalty. In matchplay you may putt on any green on the course prior to the beginning of your match, and after a hole is finished. But not before you take your stroke on any hole.
No you cant, you can after the hole is completed. But, you must use the same type of ball throughout the whole round.
You need to have completed the Rocket base on Island One and defeated the Rockets in the Ice Cave on Island Four, once you completed them you will be allowed access to read the Dotted Cave Braille.
Hole out is simply finishing a hole of golf, obviously by putting the ball in the hole.
In stroke play it would be known as a non return, as the player has not completed the hole, by holing out, in other words they have picked up. In a stableford competition it means they have exceeded the score allowed under the points system and would get nothing for the hole, also known as a ding.
no
One under par on a hole is called a "birdie".
Well, it wouldn't be a hole in one then, I'm sure it has happened, but they would just have to take relief from the putting green.
