in situations like this, i always use golf's number 1 and 2 rules, keeping in mind it's a gentleman's game:

1. always use the rules to your advantage.
2. if something isn't up to par, penalize yourself.


sounds like your ball was on the cart path, you took your club length but didn't take full relief leaving your back heel touching the cart path.

you're the only one w/ the score card here.

the ultimate question: you gonna mark it a 4 or a 6?

If the course has a maximum score for a hole that's what I put. Because I'm probably over it anyway.

That's why I'd simply hit it off the cart path. That would be really great compared to where it usually ends up.

nothing states ya cant play it off the cart path, it's actually a shorter walk.

penalty only occurs if you elect to take relief but your shoe still touches the path.

At least there was no staged hair pulling, eye gouging and fake body parts.

I would have never known that.

My one round was well over 100 for the 9 hole course. And totally bizarre. The couple guys who joined my friend and I thought I was putting one over on them at first. The first two holes had a very nice curve to the right, exactly where I usually hit the ball. Second hole the tee shot lands behind a shrub. As they're explaining my options for moving it out I said "I'll just rev up and hit it through there" Which somehow worked
The third however bent to the left and their suspicions were dashed as I hit a few hopelessly into the woods.
the highlights?
5th, a LONG hole and I lifted my head so the tee shot went about 10 feet. Passed on being allowed to do it over and when asked said I'd hit it hard - it would go into the woods and hopefully hit a tree and bounce forward. Which actually happened!
A couple holes later the ball ended up on a little bit of grass at the side of a gully just before the green . Easy right? Wrong, put about 6-7 into the water including one I chased because I was really low on balls by then.
Lost one in some high grass and searched with no luck.
Next hole was the opposite direction and I hit another into the same patch of grass. Found the first ball and asked " so what do I do if I found the ball I lost on the last hole? " By then the answer was "Just play it!"

So pretty much a total disaster except I had a lot of fun.

I have no clue what the overwhelming majority of the posts are talking about or referencing, but I enjoyed them.

Some Lil Wayne lyrics come to mind:

"And you could take that to the bank and deposit that
Put your two cents in, and get a dollar back"

"About all of the money that done came and went
About the two cents I ain’t never spent"

"Be dead before I be dead broke
Still burn money, my bread toast
**** it, if you got it spend it ***
But just keep your two pennies ***"
