The picture below shows the scenario, sorry about the drawing , I did it with my finger on my tablet. I had pulled my second shot over the penalty area close to the adjacent Fareway. My Approach shot to the green was from approximately 190 yards away, I hit a great hybrid that flew just over the green, hit the downslope, and bounded into the bushes that separate that green from the next Tee Box. I could not find my ball but had a good idea of where it went in. This area is not marked with an out of bounds or penalty area.
My question is where do I drop? I know I had the option of going back to where I hit the shot from. I know that the new rules give us the option of putting the ball back in play with a two-stroke penalty. I'm just not sure where that drop should have been. I took a drop with a two-stroke penalty at the point where I thought the ball entered the bushes no closer to the hole. Was I correct in doing this?
