When I check out the PDGA Player Classification Page it says,
"Advanced - the top amateur division, available to all amateur players. Required division for male amateur players under 40 years of age with ratings >= 935. Tournament experienced players who have played disc golf for several years, and developed consistency. Throw 300-450 feet, make 5-7/10 putts from 25-30 feet, have different shots in their arsenal."
When they say 5-7/10 puts from 25-30 feet do they mean 5-7 puts with a clear line of site, or does the allowance of missing between 5 and 3 account for the five that might be behind solid obstruction/wall o' trees without any chance of making it?
I'm still fairly new to things and I'm making 8-9/10 puts at 25 feet in my Costco basket at home, but those are just straight shots in a yard with the only variation being wind. I can't imagine that is what they are measuring up against when they say 5-7.
