Im a pretty new player and since I have been playing in minis recently a few OB situations have come up that I wanted to get clarified.
What everyone says is if any part of your disc is touching dirt it is considered to be inbounds and all the scenarios involve this. In all these situations concrete and pavement are considered to be OB.
We have one hole that has an area with sloped concrete behind it and it is not uncommon for a disc to land on that area and then slide to the bottom. When the disc comes to rest it is still on the concrete with only the very bottom edge supporting it on the ground. Is that inbounds?
Another hole has a park road running beside. The hole is located by an area without a curb for water drainage purposes. This area will wash sand and dirt into the road. If a disc comes to rest in the road, but touching dirt that has been washed out into the road is it in bounds? In that situation is the loose sand considered to be an inbound playing surface on top of an OB playing surface? If a pavement is considered OB and not the road can a erosion expand the inbound area onto the road?
This one I will have to take a closer look at next time I am out. We have a bridge that runs over a river with a large concrete slope under and on the side of it. The slope has a tree that is either at the bottom of it or coming through the concrete close to the bottom. If the tree is coming through the concrete and has exposed ground is it considered to be inbounds even though it is surrounded be a very large area that is out of bounds? The tree appears to collect debris that slides down the slope so if the disc is stopped by this debris that may be resting on top of concrete is it considered to be inbounds? What if the debris is connected to ground? I will be playing the course this weekend and will go take a better look. If concrete is OB and not specifically the very large area covered by concrete can you have small areas inside it that are considered inbounds?
If water is OB and a disc spikes into a shallow area and is not fully submerged is it considered to be OB?
