Re: Your handicap
I AM, actually, playing my handicap. I haven't - at least for the last 2 years - at any point had a score (in match OR practice) that would result in my handicap being adjusted back.

Sadly - I haven't improved much in the same period of time. Still struggling with far too many missed fairways, and it seems, that no matter if you slice your drive into the lake 100 yards out or 220 yards out, the penalty (rules-wise as well as effectively) is the same.

Huh?
Is it a lateral water hazard?

In a lateral water hazard, you may also, under penalty of one stroke, drop within two club-lengths of (a) the point where the ball last crossed the hazard margin or (b) a point on the opposite hazard margin equidistant from the hole. (26-1c)

The point being, that no matter if you slice it into a lake 220 yards away or 100 yards away, you will still have to suffer the same stroke-penalty.

ahh ok, you are talking about 2 different lakes.
If it was the one lake then the stroke and distance penalty would be different
