 Rule:  Where to place your ball between the Tee Markers-- review.  Where can I tee it from? Your ball must be between the two markers, but you can stand outside. You may tee your ball up to two club-lengths behind the markers, but not an inch in front. Your front foot can be in front of the markers, though.  

for your review-  What to do if you miss hit from the tee- if the ball lands back on the tee box you can  tee it up on the second shot...    https://youtu.be/xjDD0Z99m9c

 Golf Rule- red stakes ----  When a golfer hits their ball in a red-stake lateral water hazard, the golfer has two options, to drop the ball, take relief and incur a one-stroke penalty: Drop the ball within two clublengths of where the ball last crossed the margin (boundary) of the hazard, making sure the ball is no closer to the hole or play it where it Lies

Golf Rule:  How to drop from a cart path:  Nearest relief, no closest to the hole.  The rules permit you to drop within one club-length of the nearest point of relief that allows you to stand and swing freely without interference from the path     Free Drop.
