Putt hanging on rim of basket

[swiltse]

So this has happened to me once before, but this time I got it on video while practicing in the backyard. Put hits chains and proceeds to bounce out of basket, only to get caught on the rim of the basket but hanging outside of basket.

I think this used to be legal and count as in, but I'm pretty sure they changed that rule and this would now not be considered in under PDGA rules.

Anyone care to weigh in on if this is considered "in" the basket?

Not legal

You are no go at this station. Go to the end of the line.

You get nothing, and you will like it. Good news....the come back shot is easy.

Subtract two from your score.

802.05(A)
Basket Targets: In order to hole out, the thrower must release the disc and it must come to rest supported by the chains and/or the inner cylinder (bottom and inside wall) of the tray. It may be additionally supported by the pole...

Close enough, I'd count it.

Then you clearly don't know the rules!:doh:

If I threw the yellow one I be pist all it needs is to be breathed on to fall in

Oh, I'm aware of the official rule on this situation. If I was playing in some sort of sanctioned event, it would not count.

But I'm not playing in officially sanctioned events, I'm actually having fun.

New to tournament stuff but say you have one of those weird hanging putts, can the person behind you refuse to putt? Mainly talking about the yellow disc.

It'd be common courtesy to go clear any kind of wedged/hanging disc before another players has to putt.

It doesn't count. Sucks if it happens.

I've seen it where the disc lands on top of the basket where the chains hang from. The disc heizered so hard at the basket, it got lodged in the metal. How about that one? does that count? I jokingly let my friends who don't play as often count that as a -1 to the score of the hole. Obviously they can't be right at the basket and toss it up there; it has to be at least a long putt.

Heizered.

I like this spelling.

Sounds like a beer.
