The ball may be lifted and cleaned

- when in play on the green, but not when another ball is in motion, and must be marked
- elsewhere on the course when in play and lifted for a reason prescribed under the rules, but not when determining its fitness for play, determining whose ball it is, or repositioning the ball to avoid interference with another player

Failure to observe these rules is a 1 stroke penalty

Why are golf balls numbered?
Golf Balls are numbered in order for golfers to be able to distinguish between their ball from other balls of the same brand. You can imagine how many golf balls could be lost in the woods; numbering them helps to find the ball that you hit and not the balls of the other six people that thought they were good enough to smack a four dollar Titleist Pro V1 around the course.
This being said, it is common practice to create distinguishing marks on your ball at the tee box with a permanent marker. I always thought that this was so that it wouldn't be so easy for your buddy to drop the next ball from the sleeve of balls he has (which all have the same number), claiming he miraculously "found" his ball sitting up nicely in the semi-rough just over the hill in front of you. Although there are obvious ways around this, so maybe its just to display some creative artwork skills before the round.

If you declare a ball lost and return to the tee but you ball is found before you make another stroke, can you play the original ball?
I don't think so. However, it might depend on what type of competition you're playing. Otherwise once it's been declared "lost" then you're obliged to play another ball and take the stroke and distance penalty. You can pick the "lost" ball up for later use.

Can a golf ball be replace by a different type of ball during tournement play
"There is nothing in the Rules of Golf that prevents a golfer from switching to a different brand of golf ball (i.e., from a Titleist to a Bridgestone) on every hole on the course - so long as the change is made between the play of holes.
However, there is something in the Rules of Golf that says a tournament committee can impose such a rule.
It's called the "one ball condition" (in the rulebook, it's in Appendix 1, Part C), more commonly known as the "one ball rule." As you probably know, all Tour events are played under the "one ball rule." And any rules committee may adopt the "one ball rule" for its competitions.
"The "one ball condition" requires the player to use the exact same brand and type of ball throughout the round. For example, if you tee off the first hole with a Titleist Pro V1x, then that's what you must play throughout the round. You may not switch to any other brand of ball, nor even to any other type of Titleist ball. You started with the Pro V1x, so the Pro V1x is what you must use on every stroke. "If the "one ball rule" is not in effect, however, golfers may swap out different types of golf balls at any point in a round of golf, so long as the change is made between holes rather than during the play of a hole."
