Can I repair hail marks on the putting green?
After a short hailstorm the putting green is full of small indentations from the hailstones. May you repair the indentations on your line of play?
Answer
Yes, you may repair indentations from embedded objects such as hail
On the putting green you may repair damage such as ball marks, shoe damage, animal tracks and embedded objects such as stones, acorns or hail, together with the indentations they cause. You may not repair the effects of rain or irrigation, natural surface imperfections or marks from normal maintenance such as aeration holes.
