Hole 2 Red to Long (Island) OB rules:

ANY tee shot from the Red Tee that goes OB will result in a re-tee from the Red Tee with a 1 stroke penalty (shooting 3). The player has the option to attempt the throw to the Island once again with the same rules. This means any concurrent shot from the tee will result in a re-tee with a 1 stroke penalty. Any shot that goes OB that IS NOT from the Red Tee, the player can move to the Drop Zone, which is the tee near the bridge, also with a 1 stroke penalty. The player also has the option to play from the point of OB if they prefer. SHOTS MUST LAND SAFELY ON THE ISLAND!!! If a shot makes contact with the Island but does not come to rest in bounds, the shot is considered OB and then a re-tee (if from the Red Tee Pad) or throw from the drop zone (or point of OB) will follow with a 1 stroke penalty for each shot that does not land inbounds.

Simply put, only shots from the tee will result in a re-tee. This prevents a player from tossing their disc to the edge of the water and moving to the Drop Zone shooting 3. All other shots that go OB and are not from the Red Tee will result in the next shot from the Drop Zone.

Also, just want to remind everyone that hole 4 does not use the Drop Zone at the bridge for this league. Shots are played with penalty from the last point they crossed over the inbounds area (per normal OB rules).
