Maybe a spectator picked it up... He should get a free drop in the area he believes it landed - that's what Tiger got

Can also drop anywhere on that 30 yd line from the tee to where it went in, I believe. If you didn't want to hit off a steep bank. Still hitting 3 no matter which.
You have three option 1. Re-tee 2. Two clubs from point of entry (already mentioned by others) 3. Keep the point of entry between you and the flag and go back as far as you want on that line. There is another option that is rarely used so I don't waste your time
Yellow stakes for a Hazard, red for a lateral hazard. Hazards are lateral if the committee determines there is no practical way to drop behind the hazard as per Rule 26/1b. (Keeping the point of entry between you and the flag.)
Back to the original question yes, play from where the last stroke was played under penalty of stroke and distance (the first one counts). Or keep the point where your ball entered between you and the flag and drop anywhere along that line you wish.
Two clarifications, one response was that the golfer had the option to drop anywhere along the flight of the ball to the hazard which is a common misconception. As many have pointed out, you may drop as far back as you want as long as the point where your ball entered the hazard is between you and the flag.
We're not playin the PGA tour. Pick a ball and play it.

We did just pick a ball, but I was curious as to what the official ruling would be in a tournament.
Like with the two balls in the hazard, this is actually a lost ball resulting in a stroke and distance penalty (I HATE when that happens)Played with a buddy this weekend and he hit his yellow ball in the driving range. Could not find his because they were all yellow so he did the next best thing, just played one of the range balls!
Like smalls said above, he would have to deem it a lost ball and it would be played as such. Stroke and distance.
