DGPT: 2020 Green Mountain Championship Sept 3-6

Here is the rule. Discuss.

It would seem to me the towel would be legal, but for the mini it would depend. If someone called it then it would be illegal at least until you talk to the TD.

Hopefully someone who is more knowledgeable of the rules will chime in on this.

The tee is your lie. You can't put anything in front of your lie.

They corrected it, starts today. Four rounds, four days.

Uli was making a case for using a mini as a directional aid, citing Lisa Fajkus' penalty... hence illegal. I suppose you could use a mini as a directional aid, in which case, I suppose it would be illegal.

But I wouldn't say Jerm's use of it there was directional. Although he was allowed to use the entire tee as a lie, he chose to mark his lie farther back on the line of play, specifically to avoid the dip at the front of the tee.

I don't see how that particular use of a mini is any different than standard use of a mini.
He just chose to move farther from the basket along the LOP.

I would've have taken this discussion over to the rules forum, to avoid derailing this thread. It's just too big a pain in the butt to do it on my phone.

Jerm was being a bit dramatic imo. There's a depression at the front of the teepad, so just take one more step back before throwing. The towel is unnecessary.

^Definitely watching that tonight!

I think Uli's hilarious, and I really like the way he breaks down the course when he does commentary.

Uli is rapidly becoming one of my favorites. His self-deprecating humor in a competitive sport is so refreshing.

Agreed. I had a chance to chat with him in Jonesboro last year and he's a really genuine, funny and laid back dude.

That roller Eagle threw on #10 was just nasty... Damn near bounced back off the tree into the basket

How about 996-rated Daniel Brooks-Wells #79228 from the Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania, shooting a career best unofficially rated round of 1064? Way to go DBW! :clap:

Dickerson decided to show up in the first round for once...

Not only that, but no bogeys, and not even close to a bogey. Every putt he made for par, UDisc marked it as 5ft. Dude was locked in.
