Would you still consider it an ace?

What mashnut said is correct.I can't imagine that there would be a penalty for that, you would just take your lie right underneath the other basket and play from there. Even if you were playing in a tournament where the 2m rule was in effect, this would be well below that line, so it should be just like getting caught a couple feet off the ground in a bush.Dude - how do you play out of the basket? PENALTY stroke for dropping it into another hole's basket? That's crazy - you don't even get to putt for a birdieSo guys.... would it be an ace if i hit a basket that is hole 5 about 15' behind the 3 basket which i am shooting at....
Yikes - that's a rule nazi question - ERicJ? I assume you have to drop and take the penalty stroke and you're shooting 3 right?
You mark your lie on the playing surface, in this case the ground, below the suspended disc. You throw your next shot from behind that mark/lie with no penalty.

The PDGA has no stance on ace pots because its something that has no bearing on the tournament. If it were, a lot of Ams who hit one would instantly lose their Am status unless they waived the money.
I've never heard of any TD or league that paid out a tin cup "ace"....ever. In fact, even a cali player in doubles has to hit it on his first shot. If he re-tees and it goes in, he can record a '1' for scoring purposes, but there's no payout.

The official line from the PDGA says an Amateur player accepting cash for winning an Ace Pot does not automatically become a Pro.

lol we're goin for the record # of posts on a topic, or so it seems
Not even close. Off the top of my head there this one:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/forums/showthread.php?t=136
Can a two be a one if I want it to be?
Can I call it a one if it looks like a three?
If I take the first disc and throw it away
can I say "I got my first ace today"?
If I don't like the answer to any of these
questions I'll just keep saying please
give me my ace...I just need
an ace or I'll never be ha-a-ppy.

yes please give me my "2nd* ace" oh please oh please.....
i believe after this thread is all said and done i will care less about aces and never want to see or hear another one.
ok maybe 1
or 2
or......
What's sad is that yesterday I went and tagged along with my brother and almost aced a hole and the first thing that came to my mind was this thread. I wasn't playing a round at all per se because I've been rehabbing my sore arm so I only took a Monarch and threw it maybe 5 times before that hole. I've been trying to convince my bro to get a Monarch and I literally said, "This is the perfect disc for this hole." I then proceeded to clank the disc just on the edge of the top of the basket. I could only think about how I wouldn't have counted it as an ace thanks to my strict definition. Messed up.

so did he buy one yet....i know im such an impulse buyer i would have to get ahold of one after seeing that...brb *goes to store and buys a monarch*
No, he has amazingly found enough discs without names and or numbers to fill a starter bag. One day, his addiction will level up into buying frenzy, one day.
