Must a ball be marked when taking a drop from an immovable obstruction, an abnormal ground condition or because the ball is considered to be unplayable (i.e. under Rules 24, 25 or 28)?
The position of a ball need only be marked when it is lifted under a Rule that requires it to be replaced e.g. Rule 16-1b, or 20-1. A ball to be dropped or placed in any other position, such as when taking relief from an immovable obstruction, an abnormal ground condition or an unplayable lie, does not need to be marked, but it would always be considered good practice to do so.
