On the green, if a fellow player asks you to mark your ball because it's on his line, should he remind you to replace it on the correct spot? This happenend to me and I forgot to replace it in the original position, holed out, then when we got on the next tee, he asked if I'd replaced my ball. I hadn't, so incurred a two shot penalty. Gamesmanship if ever I saw it, which was so annoying, but I know it was my responsibility to play the ball from the correct position. However, he asked me to move it, so I say he should have reminded me to replace it, out of etiquette. If I had asked him did he want me to move my ball, that would have been different. What do you golfers think?

Technically he is correct but morally he deserves to be subjected to your cold well thought out revenge. Once achieved, don't play with him again.

Don't worry about it Clarion. Golf is a great game but it can bring the worst out in some people. Forget it ever happened and enjoy your next round.
How childish
