Very hilly course in wooded, city park with small creek.
Description
Course plays uphill or downhill on most holes with some mandos to keep shots out of nearby roads. Includes two practice baskets, 45' apart, due east of hole 1's tee pad, near playground. Course map and UDisc link are available in kiosk, north of hole 1's tee pad.
Generic Rules:
1. Do not ever trespass into fenced off areas. Inside them is OB.
2. On any street is out of bounds. Beyond any street from in-bounds fairway area is out of bounds.
3. Smooth cement sidewalks adjacent to curbs/streets are OB, unless marked otherwise.
All water is OB, unless specifically designated otherwise in the players' meeting.
Walking trails are not out of bounds.
Tee Pads from other holes are not OB. (But, landing on them is embarrassing.)
4. If you miss one or more “mando” and end up OB, then the lie for your next shot is determined by the first infraction that occurred during the throw. (Exception: See rules for hole #6)
5. There is no 2-meter rule at Turner Park.
6. Street Curb Rule: The out of bounds line is defined as the edge of the cement that is adjacent to the main edge of the grass/dirt/etc; not leaves or overgrown grass. Touching leaves or overgrown grass is of no importance. If any portion of a disc resides on the in-bounds side of the defined OB line, then the disc is considered to be in bounds. Whenever street curb sections are separated for drainage or driveways, then the OB line may defined as the in-bounds edge of a painted line that spans the separation. If there is no painted line, the group is to estimate it to the best of their ability. When in doubt, error on the side of “in-bounds”.
7. Disc Under Bridge Rule: If a disc is under a bridge and the disc is not considered to be out of bounds, then the disc may be relocated out from under the bridge in a direction that is away from the basket to the nearest safe lie, or to the top of the bridge directly above disc, without incurring a penalty stroke.
(Use group decision for identification of nearest safe lie.)
8. Disc On Bridge Rule: Bridges are in-bounds. If a disc lands on top of a bridge, then it may be played as it lies, even if there is water under the bridge at the point of the lie.
