No talking when a player is throwing 2. No movement or walking closer than 10 metrs to the throwing player. 3. Player furthest away from the hole always throws first. 4. Tee-off order in 1st tee is determined by the scorecard. 5. Tee-off order on all other tees is determined by the score on the previous hole, lowest score throws first. If the last hole was a tie, count back as far as needed. 6. Don't throw until you're certain your disc landing will not distract another player. 7. Each player is allowed a maximum of 30 seconds to make a throw after the playing area is cleared or previous player has thrown. For the 1st infraction, the player will be warned by fellow players or the judge. The 2nd infraction will cost the player a one-throw penalty. If all three opponents agree or it was called by a PDGA judge. 8. Each player is required to carry a DISCtinct marker disc individually marked to identify the player ( a mini is recommended). 9. After tee-off, the thrown disc is always left on the lie ( where it landed). The marker disc is placed on the ground directly in front of and touching the thrown disc. The thrown disc is then picked up. The marker disc may not be touched 'til the throw is completed. 10. All subsequent throws are made with the closest foot to the line of the flight planted behind and as close to touching the marker disc as possible 11. Accurate foot placement on lies and tees will be required and violators will be warned the 1st time by any member of the foursome or a PDGA judge with all members being made aware of the warning. Any subsequent infraction witnessed by 2 other members of the foursome or a PDGA judge will result in an automatic one-throw penalty. 12. If a run-up is used on the fairway, the plant foot must be as close to touching the marker disc as possible. The folow through can carry past the marker disc. 13. A follow through is not allowed within 10 meters of the hole. 14. While putting, any throw from 10 meters or less, both feet must remain in exactly the same position after the throw. A falling putt or a follow through is illegal. The penalty is one warning per round. The warning can be made by any player in the foursome or by an official. When it is made, all players in the foursome should be made aware of it. After the warning, a one throw penalty will be assessed by all three members of the foursome or by a PDGA judge. All violations where the disc stayed in the Disc Pole Hole will be thrown over including warnings by the judge or three members of the foursome. 15. A lie in a tree over 2 meters from the ground is an automatic one throw penalty and is to be played at a spot as directly under the lie as possible and no closer to the hole. Place thrown disc on ground, place marker disc and recover thrown disc. 16. Out of bounds. One throw for out of bounds-one throw penalty- disc is brought in to bounds no closer to the hole than the point where it left the course.. The player is now throwing three (3) plus throws where the infraction occurred. 17. Running and standing water- 12 throw in- 1 throw penalty and disc is moved in a line directly away from the hole to the first dry land. Place marker disc at a location indicated by PDGA judge or location agreeable to the other members of the foursome. A. Casual water will not be considered standing water if it is generally less than 1/2 inch deep. B. If disc is in a lake it will be played from the shore like an out of bounds throw. 18. If anyone throws a practice throw at anytime after the start of each round and prior to his last putt he will be automatically charged a one throw penalty ( throw must be observed by 2 members of the foursome or a PDGA judge). 19. PDGA play requires each player to be responsible for the accurate addition of his own scorecard. If he missed on the high side his score stands. If the mistake was on the low side he is automatically disqualified from the tournament. 20. All scorecards must be signed by all players and scorekeeper prior to turning in to officials. 21. No modified discs allowed ( i.e. placing the outer ring of a 40 mold inside a 100 mold, taping weights, etc.).
