Episode 22: The Most Controversial Rules In Golf
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Episode 22 is all about the golf rules that spark the biggest arguments, especially among amateurs. Corey shares what kicked this off, a viral video about divot relief, then walks through a list of the most debated rules in the game and why they feel so unfair or confusing in real rounds.
You’ll hear thoughts on leaving the flagstick in, accidentally moving your ball on the green, the infamous “divot in the fairway” rule, temporary water relief, and why out of bounds penalties feel so brutal for everyday golfers. Corey also digs into gray areas like provisional balls, asking for advice during a round, and the bigger question behind all of it: should amateurs always play exactly like the pros, or should friend groups agree on modified rules as long as they’re honest about their scores?
If you’ve ever argued about white stakes, divots, or what “counts” as your real score, this one will hit home.
