The group of guys I play with came up with this issue while I was away. We know the rules state that you can throw up to 3 meters (nine feet) BEHIND a tee box, but what are the legal rules about the sides of a tee box? We always played, like ball golf, that the disc had to pass through both sides (right edge and left edge of the front of the tee box) of the tee box. This keeps in the play the direction that the course creator had in mind for the first throw. Is this correct? Or can a player step and/or throw from the sides of a tee box? For example; Can someone step out 3 meters from the edge of a tee box and three meters behind it or does that change the entire position of the tee box altogether?
What is the correct, legal answer? Not casual, but correct answer? Thanks for any and all input and help.
