Playing your 4th shot on a given hole??? Explanation: Alright, I'm just embarrassing myself here, so this will be my last guess, but here goes.... On a given hole, you are playing (making) your fourth shot (attempt, swing, whatever....). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 46 mins (2006-08-11 03:49:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Previous, silly guess, "using the 4 iron", deleted. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 48 mins (2006-08-11 03:51:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Saw your last note after I posted my update. I thinking we're converging on a consensus (of 2!) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 55 mins (2006-08-11 03:58:58 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Where are all the golfers out there?! OK, from reading the last post your outsourcer sent you, I'm beginning to get a hazy recollection that when lose a ball (in the rough, etc.), which I think they're calling OB(out of bounds), you have to take a penalty(as alluded to in the explanation provided by your outsourcer. Hence, (and now I'm back to guessing), your second shot must be played as your fourth! How's that? BTW, I don't have enough Kudoz to directly converse with you in the "Ask the Asker" form. Ergo, alll these notes. |

Zenshin Yonda (also 'Play Four') Explanation: Describes when you hit a ball out of bounds from a tee shot, and play on from halfway down the course as if it were your fourth shot. This is apparently a Japan-only rule. http://feature.blog-city.com/golf.htm -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 54 mins (2006-08-11 03:57:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- 前進4打 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2006-08-11 04:10:13 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- ティーショットがOBだった時、原則的には一打罰で打ち直しである。それを、どこの誰が始めたのか知らないがフェアウェイの特設ティなるものから打ち直しさせるという、日本独自の田舎ルール。もちろんplaying fourも和製英語。 http://golfnahibi.uh-oh.jp/jiten2.htm |
