Yeah! That's the issue, the rules can't be played realistically by the rest of us for that exact reason. This is nonsense, and I think he could have gotten a better result if he hadn't listened, going right was going to be better, especially since the second puddle was a new puddle.

My goodness ...hitting a shot off a gravel path, under a branch with a sea of faces staring at you, any of which you could potentially kill with an errant shot - all that after a dizzying rules discussion and the clock already ticking away. Now that is pressure. Amazing.

Benjamin Lee under the rules of golf, when taking relief you use a club length which is the longest club excluding the putter to mark the drop zone. You need to use the club that you Will be using for the shot to make a reasonable stance and swing if the cart path or water was not there to see where the nearest point of relief.
