Question

If i'm 1/2 inch etc. close to the hole, am I allowed to try to blow it in?

Answer 1

No, but you can jump up and down and hope that works.

You're talking about golf, right?

Answer 2

You are allowed to, but then you have to take a one stroke penalty and replace the ball where it was and hole out from there. It's up to you :)

Answer 3

You will be exerting undue influence on the ball thereby incurring a one stroke penalty . You must then replace the ball to its original position and use the proper end of any club to hit it into the hole..

Answer 4

You'll get penalty for sure.

Answer 5

no, it will never work and you will mess up the green. Might as well get used to it, i've had them rest with the ball halfway over the cup.

Answer 6

People that do not know what the rules are and still try to play the game...................... No you can't legally do this!

Answer 7

No, against the rules of golf.  Now if the wind by itself blows it in without your assistance, then it counts and a made putt.

Answer 8

yeah if you totally disrespect the history and integrity of the game of golf go ahead....

Answer 9

hey hey,

thats sounds pretty sick dude.

i wouldn't ask that to the USPGA or the R&A.

Oh, no you cant. But in a friendly or muck about you probably could. :)
