2. Any member with a higher Bag Tag number may challenge any player with a lower Bag Tag number within the current “ladder challenge” spaces, to a round of disc golf.

4. Bag Tags should be visible on your bag at all times. Members cannot avoid challenges by leaving the Bag Tag at home or by concealing your Bag Tag (see forfeiture).

9. If the challenger has the lowest score for the round, the tags must be exchanged immediately following the round.
10. Once the challenge has been played, results must be reported via whatever means necessary to Rock at 406-209-2119, so that the current rankings can be changed to reflect the challenge.

Whichever comes first.

Forfeiture
Each Bag Tag belongs to the entire club membership and should be accessible to all club members. Any club member will be required to surrender his/her Bag Tag if:
• He/She is found to be purposely concealing the Bag Tag, especially with a low number.
• Refusing and/or “forgetting” to carry his/her Bag Tag, especially to events where members are “likely” to be present.
• Refusing Automatic Challenges.
• Generally denying Bag Tag access to other members (TBD by 2 or more club officers).
If you lose your Bag Tag, please report it immediately. You may then purchase the next highest number Bag Tag available. Replacement tags, if available, will cost $5.00.
Rules are subject to change and the DGNEGA Board of Directors will decide all disputes. The DGNEGA Board of Directors reserves the right to revoke your Bag Tag at our discretion.
