Other rules to remember:

 
Rule 10-b Weekenders Rules and Regulations

Mark your ball - All balls should be marked or risk DQ. (provisional should be marked differently)
 

Wayward Tee Shots - if there is any chance you lost your ball, hit a provisional.  If you hit the provisional away again, take line of flight and hit 5 from that point.

Trees are not lateral hazards unless noted with red stakes.   

If you don't play a provisional YOU CANNOT go back to the tee or your previous spot.  You drop where your opponents believe it was lost (LINE OF FLIGHT) and take a  2 stroke penalty (1 in now hitting 4)
 

White Stakes OB - stroke and distance.  Drop from where you played the last shot  hit again with a 1 stroke penalty.
 

Red/ Yellow Stakes - Take the line where ball crossed the hazard 2 club lengths and hit again with a 1 stroke penalty.
You can go into hazard to play the shot.  When playing a shot from a penalty area, you can remove any detached natural or artificial object (known as loose impediments and movable obstructions), ground your club behind the ball, or take practice swings that touch the ground.
 

Unplayable Lies -  for each 2 club lengths = 1 stroke penalty.  If you hit it deep in the woods that's likely not an option, so hit a provisional, and play as a lost ball (1 stroke penalty).
 

Lost Ball-   played like white stakes, YOU MUST GO BACK to the previous spot to re-hit incurring 1 stroke penalty, OPTION to speed up play - 
you may choose not to go back to the previous spot PENALTY is 2 strokes.
However, YOU MUST VERIFY WITH YOUR OPPONENTS  WHERE YOUR ARE DROPPING or  AUTOMATIC LOSS OF HOLE in MATCH PLAY (Sgls & Dbls) 

So when in doubt always hit a provisional, you are allowed by the USGA to hit the provisional ball until you PASS the spot where the possible LOST BALL is located.
