Rules for the Frisbee GolfFest Open 2008 - All PDGA Rules apply.
Rules for the Frisbee GolfFest Family/Team Outing:
·
For any rulings not covered below refer to the PDGA Rules or ask an on-course official
(the folks driving around)
·
Scramble Format
o
Each player first throw is from the Tee Box
o
Each player will then throw from the best lie (your choice)
o
Continue this until the Frisbee/Disc is in the basket
o
Your Score is how many throws it takes as a team to make in the basket
o
Mark your score card accordingly and move onto the next hole.
·
The Tee Shot (from the Tee Box)
o
You may run and throw, but if your feet leave the tee box, it is a foot fault.
You must demonstrate balance with booth feet (or one foot if standing on one foot)
in the tee box after the frisbee is
launched.
§
First time you get a FREE (no Penalty) re-throw.
§
After that you lose your throw in the Scramble Format.
·
Approach Shots (shots taken after the Tee Shot)
o
Mark the best lie with a marker/disc
o
You must have ONE foot either touching the marker or on
the marker while throwing the Frisbee. Again you must demonstrate balance
with one foot touching the marker after the frisbee is launched.
·
The Putt (within 30 feet of basket)
o
Both feet must remain behind the front edge of marker even
after the Frisbee is released (i.e. Demonstrate that the shot was under balance
and not a falling shot) or the shot does not count, there is no free re-throw for
putting.
·
Unplayable Lie
o
If none of the shots of a team can be played safely you
may call an unplayable lie
o
This is a 1 stroke penalty and the first shot counts as
a stroke (i.e. All Tee Shots went into the woods and your team calls them all unplayable, your team would now be throwing there
3rd shot – 1 Tee Shot + 1 Penalty = 2 + the next shot = 3rd
shot)
o
You can play your shot from its original launch spot or
from the point closest to where it crossed the unplayable obstruction or anywhere
between these 2 points.
·
Scoring
o
Each team will be given a score card identifying there team
(don’t lose it)
o
For Each hole mark down the aggregate throws as a team.
o
1 Throw constitutes each team player throwing the Frisbee
from one launch point.
o
If you paid for 3 team players you ONLY get 1 throw for
each of the 3 team players
o
If you paid for 5 players but only have 3 on your team,
then some of your players may throw twice from each launch point.
You may not throw more than the amount your team has paid for from each launch
point (max 5) and no player may throw more than twice from any launch point.
