Not talking about moving it away from roots or rocks, I never give anyone grief about that, although "most" of the time I will chip it out of those areas instead of moving it. This is about playing from lies that aren't going to mess up your club or your body if you play it down.
I won't lie. Most of the time I play it as it lies but some times I just gotta roll it (or place it) a little. Mostly if it helps me to hit a driver from the light rough (maybe get it teed up just a bit). I don't do it sneakily, I let it be known if I do.
It also depends on the round and who I am playing with. Are we playing for bragging rights, or just playing for fun, that kind of thing.
I know some guys, mostly older, who will roll it from a perfect lie just because it is habit. Even if they can't have a better lie.
And if you want to move it from a divot hole, more power to you!
