Disc Golf Rules & Regulations

This is an abbreviated list of disc golf rules. For a complete, and rather lengthy list of all disc golf rules, please visit the Pro Disc Golf Association website.

BE EARTH CONSCIOUS: DON’T LITTER!
Disc Golf is played like ball golf using a flying disc. One stroke is counted for each throw or penalty.
Tee throws must be completed within the designated tee areas. Stepping outside of the designated tee area once the disc is released (on a follow through) is acceptable.
After teeing off, the player whose disc is farthest from the hole always throws first. The player with the least number of throws on the previous hole tees off first on the next hole.
Fairway throws must be made with the foot closest to the hole on the front edge of the previous throw’s line.
A run-up and normal follow through, after release, is allowed for throws more that 30 feet from the hole. Inside 30 feet, the player cannot step past the point of his line until the disc has landed.
A disc that comes to rest inside the disc hole basket or chains, constitutes successful completion of the hole. A disc that comes to rest on top of the basket does not constitute a successful putt.
Any disc that comes to rest more that six feet above the ground is considered unplayable. The disc must be thrown from the ground directly below the disc, and a one-point penalty is incurred.
A throw that lands out of bounds must be played from the point where the disc went out of bounds, and a one-point penalty is incurred. Normal out-of-bounds hazards include water, roads, pavilions, walkways, etc.
Never throw until the fairway ahead is clear of players and park guests.
