How about a Legit Rules Question...
On my local course we use netting to protect adjacent teeboxes and specific walkways. Golden Gate park is very heavily trafficked so it's a safety issue.
On one drive, my disc hit the net and dropped. Sadly the Pin was 15' ahead. BUT the net captured the disc on the opposite side. Because i hit the net high, it "caught it" and the disc dropped, resting on a folded heap of unused of net on the bottom. (Disc is on top of the netting.) Because the net is not attached at the bottom i could lift it straight up causing the disc to fall to the ground, and then pull the net backwards so the disc is on the good side of the net.

On that day, i considered the net "immovable" and threw around it.... but i was wondering if, as per rules, i could have been tricky and moved the net.
The reason i chose to throw around is, is that the disc were resting ON the net, and by moving the obstruction, i would also move the disc. If the disc happened to slide under the net and rest on the ground i would have moved the netting and continued. I decided that "moving a disc in any way", even indirectly, was probably against the rules.
could i have moved the net, and disc to create a better shot?
