Ok everybody, it's tournament day, one question came up yesterday as to which shot to take if one is in the water and the other further back. Well, my answer is that the worst shot would be the one that went in the water due to the fact that it went out of bounds and cost a stroke. You may want to bring an umbrella with you today because there is a 40% chance of storms. If there happens to be lightning during one of the rounds, I ask that you do your best to get to your cars or shelter in one of the nearby apartment stairwells until it passes. Safety is number one out there today. Here's a quick recap of the rules:
1) Players are to take the worst shot out of the two partners *this means the farthest from the pin if in bounds and if out of bounds, the shot that went out of bounds* if both shots went out of bounds, take the one that left play farthest from the basket.
2) If a shot enters and stays in the basket, the shot counts and that particular hole is completed for that team.
3) Shots that go out of bounds are to be taken from the spot that the disc left in bounds play.
4) There is a 5 minute limit to searching for lost discs. All players are encouraged to help find a lost disc to ensure a timely search.
5) Be respectful and civil toward others involved in the tournament. Respect is the key to having fun at these events.
Remember to be safe out there today and have fun in this 4th annual April Fool's Worst Shot Doubles!
