Drop where it went out of bounds and take two stroke penalty. Local group rules are Bs. Golf isn’t 8 ball.

The penalty for for a ball out of bounds is stroke and distance. You cannot drop a ball where your ball went out of bounds. You must replay the shot from where it was originally played and add one stroke. If you think that your ball might be lost or out of bounds, you should play a provisional ball.
