I don't know the difference between a and d. Either way of saying it, it's a stroke on the scorecard.

Hahaha. I don't think non-professionals (duffers) are too strict about this rule, but in pro-golf ALL the rules apply. When I was trying to learn with a friend, we even "overlooked" really bad shots and said they didn't count, but that was just among friends and we were BAD golfers!
