3. What happens if your ball gets stuck in a tree? And depending on
the answer, what if it is unreachable?

This is an interesting case. If your ball is in a tree, and you wish
to shake the tree to dislodge it and thus identify it you need to
declare ahead of time that if that is your ball, it is unplayable and
that you will take a drop. Otherwise, if you dislodge it, you are
subject to penalties for moving your ball and then have to return it
to the tree where you found it.
