  1. Hi Kate, difficult to give a ruling without being there. However, the
    nearest point of relief must be on the course, not out of bounds. The
    nearest point is also not nearer the hole and complete relief must be taken
    from the cart path. Your nearest point of relief was most likely along the
    line your ball took before entering the cart path. Mind you, it seems like
    it could have been some distance back from where you would have dropped if
    the out of bounds wasn’t there. Hope this helps.

  2. Hi, I had the ball land in the middle of the path with the nearest point of
    relief being out of bounds (a small fence lined the side of the path to
    where I needed to drop the ball), I wound up playing off the path but what
    would you do in that instance (the green was quite close to the other side
    of the path). Thanks, Susan
