During the weekend I played a hole with a hazard area surrounding the hole. If you did not land in an area around the hole marked by logs, you were in the hazard area and you needed to continue playing from where you landed with one stoke penalty. There was not any dz on this hole.
But what happens if you fail to land in the marked area on the second try? Do you get one penalty for each missed try or just the one for the first throw?
After a bad first throw where I ended up in the hazard zone, I had some trees between me and the marked area, so I missed on the second try also. My playing mates decided that I should receive one penalty for each missed try but is this correct?
Thanks in advance
