A proposed revision to the rules of golf is being sought in South Florida
which will replace the traditional call of "FORE".
Once a player has hit an errant shot he will be allowed to call "GORE" while the
ball is still in flight. He can then replace the ball in the same spot and hit it again.
The player can do this until he is satisfied the ball is going where he intended to hit it
in the first place. This will cause the time of play to be extended until such time the
player can claim the hole.
This revision is causing some consternation to the PGA but proponents say it is only fair.
A recent test of this new rule was played out in an exclusive club in Palm Beach County,
Florida and the first hole only took 7 days to complete!!!!
