Re: Can we get a NEW UP DATED WEBSITE ALREADY? - 5 weeks ago
There are already apps that can download course information, including distances and pars, from various sources: 1) Discasaurus is a very elegant app for IOS (it sucks for Android right now because its so buggy) that downloads course information including pars and distances and saves and publishes scores on the web so they can be accessed from any device and you can see how others are scoring atby Jazzcaster - General Discussion
Re: Doubles Format Idea - 2 months ago
Certainly sounds interesting. I like the idea confining Worst Shot to one hole. The partner's bag thing seems a little gimmicky to me, but I guess all doubles formats have that quality to a certain extent.by Jazzcaster - General Discussion

Re: Doubles Format Idea - 2 months ago
I just thought of another modification. The Worst Shot format could also be folded into this format by allowing the other team to determine whether the second throw must be taken. Under that scenario, if taken, the second throw must be used, even if it turned out to be a better throw. This would allow the opposing team to attempt to eliminate a really good shot. To promote speed of play, a secondby Jazzcaster - General Discussion
Doubles Format Idea - 2 months ago
The favorite doubles format discussion and a round of Alt Shot got me thinking about a way to mix Best Shot with Alt Shot and maybe end up with something that plays faster than Best Shot but doesn't suck as bad as Alt Shot. Anyway the idea is to use the alternate shot format but allow the second player to throw as an option. However, the twist is that if the second shot is taken, it must be used.by Jazzcaster - General Discussion
Re: BoD Vote on rules Circumvention - 2 months ago
There will always be people who parse the rules and ignore their purpose and insist that without a technical violation, punishment should not be meted out. Perhaps what the rules need is a "commerce clause" type statement to discourage attempts to game the rules in the future - something to the effect of: "The purpose of the these rules is to insure, to the extent possible, compby Jazzcaster - General Discussion
Re: Reclassification - 2 months ago
It would be nice if the rule was changed to reflect not that a player has not only "not accept" a finishing award but that the player "did not qualify for a finishing award, whether accepted or not." Seriously, what difference does it make if a person accepts the award if they played well enough to get one. Under the new rule, all you have to do is let the TD keep your secondby Jazzcaster - SN Board of Directors
Re: Rules Questions - 3 months ago
Quotetherefore if only the water is OB, then the tree above the water is technically not OB, because by that rule if you hit a dry patch in the ditch, it's not OB No OB for the tournaments is probably the best way to go. But if the water is OB, a disc that is in the tree above the water is also OB - technically and otherwise. BTW, I'm betting on some water for at least 4 months.

Rules Questions - 3 months ago
Here are two scenarios that have recently occurred: 1. Disc comes to rest in a tree above a ditch. The water in the ditch has been ruled by the Director to be OB. The disc is clearly, directly and completely above the water. Is the disc OB? 2. Same ditch with water that is considered OB now has water outside it's banks due to recent rain. Disc lands in water a significant distance from theby Jazzcaster - General Discussion

Re: Rules question - relief abuse? - 3 months ago
Okay, so maybe, on a putt, that distance might matter but one of the primary reasons that I don't say anything is that you get the same 22cm or so "advantage" by putting down the mini marker, which will just result in slower play. I get and agree with your point about following the rules and insisting that others do so as well to ensure fair competition. I guess this just seems likeby Jazzcaster - General Discussion

Re: Rules question - Can You Throw From A Tree? - 3 months ago
Yep, old rulebook. But I think the ket to the "playing surface" definition is the phrase "generally the ground" along with the word "reasonably." I suggest that it is unreasonable to climb a tree and attempt to take a stance therein and that the "playing surface" should be considered to be the ground in the event that you find your disc in a tree. But &qby Jazzcaster - General Discussion
Re: Rules question - Can You Throw From A Tree? - 3 months ago
There is a more specific rule: "803.08 Disc Above Or Below the Playing Surface: A. If a disc comes to rest above the playing surface in a tree or other obstacle on the course, its lie shall be marked on the playing surface directly below it. If the point directly below the disc above the playing surface is an out-of-bounds area, the disc shall be declared out-of-bounds and marked and penby Jazzcaster - General Discussion

Re: Pineville DGC Mini Schedule - 6 months ago
Just a suggestion for future scheduling, but you might want to consider scheduling the night golf on dates at or near a full moon. Of course, I have never played at night and am only guessing that this would help. Also, Martin Park Park is pretty wide open has some lighting from the 911 center and might make a good night golf location, unless the pit bull gets loose.by Jazzcaster - General Discussion
