HOW TO PLAY DISC GOLF

The object of disc golf is to have fun and complete the course in
the fewest strokes possible. One point (stroke) is counted each
time the disc is thrown and/or a penalty is incurred. The player
with the lowest total points for the entire course wins.

1. Start at the Tee: Tee throws must be completed within or
behind the designated tee area.

2. Throw in Turn: After teeing off, the player whose disc is
farthest from the hole throws first.

3. Play from your Spot: Subsequent shots are played from
behind the spot where the previous shot came to rest.
This spot is know as the “lie.” If your disc comes to rest in a
tree or bush, the lie is the spot on the ground directly below.
A run-up and follow through are allowed, but the player must
release the disc before stepping past the lie.

4. Putt Carefully: A putt is a throw from within 10 meters
(32.8 ft) of the target. When putting, you may not step
past your lie until the disc comes to rest.

5. Out-of-Bounds: If a shot goes out-of-bounds, play from
either the last in-bounds location with a 1-stroke penalty or
re-tee with a 1-stroke penalty.

6. Finish the Hole: The hole is completed when the disc comes
to rest in the basket or chains. The hole is not completed if
the disc is resting on the top of the target.

7. Next Tee: The player with the least amount of strokes on the
previous hole is the first to tee o on the next hole.

8. Win with the Fewest Throws: Keep track of your throws—
lowest total wins the game!

Safety and courtesy are important. Be careful of plants, animals
and people. Throw only when the landing area is clear of people
including other players.
HAVE FUN!
