PDGA Certified Rules Exam 2024Question 1 of 25
You put your tee shot 4 meters from the target. Your putt hits the side of the catch tray and
rolls 35 meters down a hill and into a pond, quickly sinking beneath the water. The rules
sheet says "Pond OB." There is no drop zone. You know that the best decision is to re-putt
with a penalty, but another player in the group insists you have to throw from down by the
pond. What section(s) of the Official Rules of Disc Golf support your claim? - ANSA. Both
810.D and 809.01.A.
B. Both 806.02.D.1 and 812.B.1.b.
C. Both 806.02.D.1 and 809.01.A
D. 806.02.E.
Answer C
Question 2 of 25
You are playing on a disc golf course that co-exists with a golf course. You throw a shot that
comes to rest with your disc straddling a painted line around the edge of a bunker. Standing
behind the thrown disc and facing the target puts your feet completely in the bunker. The
rules sheet says "Bunkers are hazards, marked with paint." What is the correct ruling? -
ANSA. Your disc is not clearly and completely surrounded by the hazard, 806.05.B, but your
resultant lie cannot be in the hazard, 802.07.A.3. You take up to a meter relief from the line
marking the hazard and mark a new lie there.
B. Your disc is not clearly and completely surrounded by the hazard, 806.05.B. You throw
from in the hazard without penalty.
C. Your disc has broken the hazard plane, 806.05.B. You take a penalty throw and throw
from in the hazard.
D. Your disc has broken the hazard plane, 806.05.B. You take a penalty throw but get free
optional relief back along the line of play.
Answer C
Question 3 of 25
Your group has thrown their drives on a hole where the fairway is short and straightforward,
but the target is placed on a 1.5m tall man-made mound covered in artificial turf. All four of
you are within the putting circle. The away player putts, and their disc hits the catch tray,
rolls, and is stopped by the player's own bag. Another player in the group calls an
interference penalty and looks over to you. Should you second the call? - ANSA. No, a disc
, that strikes something that isn't part of the course is played where it first comes to rest,
810.C.
B. Yes, this is cheating and the player should be disqualified, Competition Manual 3.03.C.1.
C. No, any interference with a player's own disc must be intentional, 810.E.
D. Yes, this is interference, 810.D.
Answer D
Question 4 of 25
A player in your group throws their second shot past the target and into thick, deep rough.
There's a white paint line between the cut grass of the fairway and the rough. The rules
sheet says "white paint lines mark OB rough." The disc is nowhere to be found. The whole
group agrees that the disc clearly landed in the OB area. What next? - ANSA. Because not
being able to find your disc is punishment enough, the player marks a new lie within a meter
of where the disc was last seen with no penalty.
B. Because the group cannot locate the disc within three minutes, it is declared lost,
805.03.A. The player receives a penalty throw and must throw from their previous lie,
805.03.D.
C. Because the group agrees that the disc landed OB, it is OB, 806.02.A. However, because
the group cannot locate the disc within three minutes, it is declared lost, 805.03.A. The
player takes two penalty strokes and returns to their previous lie.
D. Because the group agrees that the disc landed OB, it is not a lost disc, 806.02.C. The
group determines the point where the disc went out, and the player receives a penalty stroke
and can play from an in-bounds lie placed within a meter of that point in any direction,
806.02.D.
Answer D.
Question 5 of 25
Your group walks up to a hole that is a blind, downhill, right to left shot. You are teeing first.
You throw a left-handed forehand shot that looks good, and your card yells when you hear
the disc hit metal. When you get down to the target, your disc is stuck in the front of the
target's tray. Did you complete the hole? - ANSA. Yes. Your disc came to rest supported by
the tray, 807.B.
B. Yes. No one saw the disc enter the target incorrectly, 807.B.
C. No. Your disc needed to enter the target between the bottom of the chain support and the
top of the catch tray, 807.C.
D. No, because less than half the disc is inside the tray, 807.B.
