Incorrect error


The "goofs" section states:

On the putting green, Scotsman MacRory laughs as his ball sits directly within Bugs Bunny's putting line, thus forcing Bugs to bank-shot his putt with a cue stick. Rules of golf dictate that MacRory must mark his ball to allow Bugs to putt out.
This would be correct now but when the film was made it was possible to block another player in this way...

Stymie - Situation in which one players' ball blocked another player's ball route to the hole. The stymied player was required to play over the top of the offending ball. The stymie was outlawed in 1951 by the USGA and the R & A.. (from britishgolfonline)

I'm only going to say this once: stay out of Camberwick Green - Sam Tyler
