Again I have to ask why this is coming up? If you have already decided to throw from your partner's lie, then that has already been determined to be the correct lie. If you decide after the fact that for yourself that his/hers was an incorrect lie because you didn't like their shot is knowingly...

I'm with wake911 on this one too. I don't want to play ANY round, doubles, tournaments, casual rounds where someone is looking for loopholes like this in the rules so they can gain an edge by exploiting them

I have honestly never heard of someone trying to exploit this. You choose a lie, your partner throws first and messes up. Why would you even decide to determine that it was the wrong lie when you still have a shot. That's the fun part about best shot doubles is you can still do good even with...

Man people need to learn to read. All it was talking about was the colors. Cool fundraiser disc but like dekdo I don't think I would ever throw a Tern...

I carry 6 putters. 2 white DX Aviars with a 90 Schilling stamp, putting only 2 DX Aviars for upshots, one is super beat and one is semi beat 1 Star Aviar for windy upshots, drives 1 Champ Classic Roc for utility, drives, putts when the wind is outrageous!

Love this hole! One of the best holes on the course! Also great for testing out new discs :D I usually throw a Star Xcal off the tee and then try to hit the putt for a deuce. Great hole for gripping and ripping!

So a TD must know every single place/object on the course that could constitute a questionable lie? What about mountain courses where there are literally hundreds to thousands of trees on a given course? Or in my previous example of Diamond X, every single rock/boulder/object on the entire...

As already posted by bradharris, the definition from the PDGA rule book: Playing Surface A surface, generally the ground, which is capable of supporting the player and from which a stance can reasonably be taken. A playing surface may exist above or below another playing surface. In cases...

I'm with JC17393 on this one. Whats not reasonable about it? He was able to take a stance, and he was able to make a legal throwing motion. Reread the definition that you posted. It does not state the the ground is the only place that can be a playing surface. It says that it is generally the...

Still throwing them, still loving them. Heck yeah they're still relevant!

Like a few people have said, look at a bad drive as an opportunity to make an awesome upshot! Sometimes you have to stay out of your own head by not expecting to birdie every hole or throw a perfect shot every time you step up. Also, for me, having that preshot routine is key. It helps get you...

Its a shame that they are discontinuing them but all I have ever heard about the Keen disc golf shoes has been bad. I was hoping that when the DeLa's came out that they would be better than the Milo's, but I held off on buying them, and glad I did now. I have used a pair of Columbia's the past...

Kind of late since tourney season is right around the corner, but I have a few, both in tourneys and out of them: 1. Practice, practice, practice! Field work, putting, mental training. Been neglecting some stuff and I need to get back into the swing of practice! 2. Push my rating above 950 and...

Don't have pics yet, but I picked up two First Run Destroyers and a First Run Eco Xcal off of a Facebook page, and also just purchased one of the Champ Glow Gators off of the Innova Factory Store.

That would definitely be a beat Firebird to go left on a forehand! Especially considering its an 11x Flat Top Champ! I have seen it turn over to the right from a backhand drive once though! Ripped it into a 40+mph headwind at a tourney a couple years ago, the thing turned over like a dang...
