Uma G.U.Rman Ball Stolen Golf Video

Today we have an unusual question from Uma Gurman. Uma writes: “I was going real low and had just striped a drive down the middle of the fairway. When I walked up to my ball a glorious eagle flew over and dumped one on my ball. I wanted to clean it off but was unsure if this was possible under the rules”

Uma, anything stuck to the ball is not a loose impediment and you can’t remove it. This applies to grass, any kind of poop but not insects. So if a fly lands on your ball you can shoo him off as long as you don’t move your ball.
