How many minutes can you look for a lost ball in golf?

Answer:
If it is your ball, you have 5 minutes from the time you arrive in the area that you think the ball may be in to find your ball. If you cannot find it after 5 minutes you must either go back to where you played your last shot from and hit another, or play your provisional if you already have done so.
