Disc Golf Rules
- Disc golf is played much like traditional golf. The object is to throw the disc from the tee area to the target 鈥渂asket鈥� in the fewest number of throws.
- Players must tee off from the tee pad. Be sure the players in front of you are out of range.
- When playing a hole, the player farthest away from the basket throws first.
- The hole is complete when a player鈥檚 disc lands in the basket or chains.
- The player with the least number of throws on the last hole tees off first on the next hole.
- Discs landing on roads, parking lots, sand volleyball courts, etc. are considered out-of- bounds (OB). Players OB shall incur a one stroke penalty and then throw from the point within one meter of where the disc crossed the OB line.
- The spot where your previous throw has landed is called the "lie". To begin your next throw, your lead foot must be on or within 11 inches directly behind the lie. The other foot may be no closer to the hole than the lie. A run-up and natural follow through after release is allowed.
- Any disc that comes to rest above the ground (in a tree or bush) is considered an unplayable lie. The disc must be thrown from the lie on the ground directly beneath the unplayable lie (one stroke penalty).
- On holes 6 & 8, the red line on the hole sign indicates a 鈥渕andatory route鈥�. Your disc must pass to the left of the line and each obstacle throughout the hole (penalty-2 strokes).
- If you want to keep track of your score, print out a Disc Golf Score Card!
- Please make sure your discs have your name on them. Lost discs should be turned in at the Front Desk in the Spencer SRC. Please do not throw over or into parking lots. Players are responsible for any damage to cars, windows, property, etc.
- Please help pick up trash on the course.
