Mando Rules

Huh? Got a diagram of what you are asking? Which direction mando? What OB? Where is the disc in relation to the Mando?
 
the tree is marked mando with an arrow pointed left, the disk lands 10ft from the tree directly in front of it, on the right side of the tree is a pavilion about 20ft from the tree. Is it legal to throw around the tree as long as it lands on the left side of the mando.
 
You have to throw to the left of the tree. AFTER it passes to the left of the tree, it can go anywhere, but it has to cross the tree to the left.
 
If you read the mando rules, once the disc has crossed the mando line, it is a penalty, even if you think you can recover.
 
804.02 Mandatories

A.
A mandatory restricts the path the disc may take to the target. A disc must pass the correct side of the mandatory before the hole is completed. A disc has passed the mandatory once it establishes a position beyond the mandatory line.


B.
A throw has missed the mandatory if it passes the incorrect side of the mandatory from the direction of the tee, and establishes a position completely beyond the mandatory line.

C.
A throw that has missed the mandatory results in a one-throw penalty. The next throw shall be made from the drop zone, as designated for that mandatory.

D.
If no drop zone has been designated, the player shall play from the previous lie.

E.
If, after a mandatory has been passed, a subsequent throw crosses the mandatory line on the correct side but in the reverse direction, the mandatory has no longer been passed. The player must still pass the mandatory on the correct side. A line connecting the lies for the hole must pass to the correct sides of all mandatories for the hole.

F.
The nearest mandatory which has not yet been passed is considered to be the target for all rules related to marking the lie, stance, obstacles, and relief, if the line of play does not pass to the correct side of that mandatory.
