Let me clarify. The tee pad is 10' from a lake. The other side of the lake is 300'. There are no trees or elevation change. There is nowhere to lay up. You cannot go around the lake. Your choice is throw a disc 300' over the water or skip the hole.
My brother and I skipped the hole in casual play because we thought it wasn't worth losing a disc. In a tournament you have to throw or be disqualified.
That is a BS rule for tournament DQs. Are you sure there is not a drop zone?
Also, if you cannot go around the lake do you have to swim?
Since I cannot throw close enough to a 400' pin to get a birdie putt, I would normally play safe and layup somewhere on the shore (if that were an option). I am thinking I would be in the drink 1-2 throws out of 10, so why take that risk if there is no reward?
