Sorry for a multi question post, I am a newcomer with golf fever.

Actually the Rules of golf prohibit this, unless the original ball is unfit for play... But I understand where you are coming from, and f you were playing a round of golf with me I wouldn't care. As others said, in tournys etc.... its a no-no.
BTW, why not get a USGA rule book, or join and get one... I find some of the rules a real hoot!
