Find the ball fast or pay the price -- costly

» The common feedback I've received from my recent rule tips have been asking for more clear simple explanations on queries involving penalty relief, ball movement, and on-course procedures. How long can you search for a ball and what's the penalty if you accidently move your ball on the green or bunker together with the ability to take free relief from abnormal ground conditions for example: ground under repair or temporary water.
Golf's odd club rules explained

» Here's a confusing rule that l would like to hopefully make clearer. You're allowed to carry up to fourteen clubs for a round of golf. However, you can have fewer -- just one if you wish. There is no restriction on the type of clubs you carry so long as they conform to the Rules of Golf. For example, you can carry multiple putters, multiple drivers, or some left-handed clubs and some right-handed clubs. If you start a round with fourteen clubs, you are generally limited to those clubs for the rest of the round, even if you lose one. But if you break one you can continue using that damaged club, replace it, or have it repaired, if possible. If you start a round with fewer than fourteen clubs, you can add clubs during the round until you reach fourteen, but you must not delay play in doing so.
