On Hole #3 if you land close to the basket but under the prickly tree what is the play? I really didn't want to stick my leg under the tree even for the birdie.
Playing by PDGA rules, you can take relief with a one stroke penalty directly behind the obstacle in a direct line from the basket.
I might bleed in a tourney but not in practice mode...Thanks for the information...I didn't know if there was a danger situation or not.
Link to the actual rule if you are interested. The only way that you can get relief from that tree without penalty is if the TD designates it as such. https://www.pdga.com/rules/official-rules-disc-golf/80302
Hopefully I can learn to stay away but I am not usually that close to a basket 1st throw...lol
