Tee Box Assignments...
AMS and MIX divisions will play from the Short Tees both rounds. Pros will play from the Short Tees 1st round and Long tees 2nd round. *EVERYONE plays HOLE 8 FROM THE LONGS BOTH ROUNDS.
1st Round Format is Alternate Shot. In this format, teammates take turns throwing from where the other throws until one teammate gets the disc in the basket.
Here's how this format could work on a par 3:
1. Teammate 1 (T1) throws from the tee. (stroke 1)
2. Teammate 2 (T2) throws the team's next shot from where T1's shot landed. T2's shot lands near the basket. (stroke 2)
3. T1 putts from the lie and misses but lands near the basket. (stroke 3)
4. T2 makes the putt from where T1 landed. (stroke 4: bogey)
5. T1 throws the team's drive from the next tee.
2nd Round Format is Best Shot (Regular scramble golf)
When most disc golfer's hear "doubles," Best Throw (sometimes called Captain's Choice) is what first comes to mind. As the name suggests, it's when a team always picks the best throw from one of the team members as its lie.
Here's how this format could work on a par 3:
1. Teammates 1 and 2 (T1 and T2) throw from the tee.
2. T1 lands not too far from the basket. T2 lands out of bounds (OB).
3. The players choose to play from the lie near the basket. (stroke 1)
4. T1 misses the putt. T2 makes it.
5. The team chooses to take the made putt. (stroke 2: birdie)
