I hit my approach shot into what looked like it had once been a lake. With the drought in California, it's not that unusual to see ex-lakes. It was marked with blue-tipped stakes. I assumed it was a hazard, so I took a drop (and a penalty stroke) and hit my approach to the green.
The local rule indicated that the areas surrounded by blue-tipped stakes should be played as casual water. Free relief. Odd.
I had already posted my score when I noticed the local rule on the scorecard (see below). Hopefully my handicap chair can fix it.
