group throws a tee shot that lands in a bunker. The rules sheet says "Bunkers are
hazards." What section of the Official Rules of Disc Golf has the rule you need? -

D. 811, Misplay.

Question 2 of 25
During the first round of a B-Tier, the caddie for a player in your group takes large,
frequent sips of an unknown liquid from an insulated water bottle. It becomes
apparent quickly that the liquid is some kind of alcohol. You see the TD standing
near the target of a nearby hole and wave them over. The TD questions the
caddie, who admits they were drinking rum and cola for the entire round. The
course is owned by a local distillery, who allows consumption of their products,
including the rum in question, on their property. What is the result? - ANSWERS-
,A. Because the venue permits the consumption of alcohol and because the caddie
is not a player, there's nothing to be done unless the venue chooses to eject them
for being too intoxicated, Competition Manual 1.14.C.4.
B. Public display or use of alcohol is prohibited, Competition Manual 3.03.B.5.
However, the TD can allow the player to finish the round with a warning and
continue playing the event, as long as they have a different caddie or no caddie
for the next round.
C. Public display or use of alcohol at a B-Tier is a mandatory disqualification,
Competition Manual 3.03.C.4. Because caddie behavior also applies to the player,
3.05.C, the player and caddie are both disqualified from the event.
D. Because no player made a call, there is nothing the TD can do, even if a rule
was broken, 801.02.A.
Answer C
Question 3 of 25
The hole your group is playing has a target close to a drainage culvert that
extends into the side of a hill. Your tee shot flies past the target and straight into
the culvert. Your group can see the disc about a meter and a half inside. What is
your next move? - ANSWERS-A. You cannot reach your lie, so you need to
abandon the throw and re-tee, 809.01.A.
, B. Mark a lie directly above the position of the thrown disc on the playing surface,
805.01.C.
C. You cannot reach your lie, so the disc is lost and you must re-tee, 805.03.D.
D. You must do everything you can to squeeze into the culvert behind your disc,
803.01.A, or else take par plus four, 811.F.3.
Answer B
Question 4 of 25
Your four-person group is playing a hole where the target is raised on a long pole,
so the catch tray is about 2 meters above the playing surface. A player in your
group throws a tee shot that lands directly at the base of the pole. When the
player arrives at their lie, they jump up into the air and dunk their putter into the
target like a ball. The putter comes to rest in the catch tray, and the player lands
behind their thrown disc and demonstrates balance. The third player in your
group says "foot fault," a common term for a stance violation under 802.07, and
the fourth player says "yup, I agree." What's the result? - ANSWERS-A. Because
the player did not have any supporting points in contact with their lie when they
released the disc, they committed a stance violation, 802.07.A.1, which was called
and seconded, 801.02.E. The player has completed the hole in three total throws,
counting the penalty stroke.
B. Because the player did not have any supporting points in contact with their lie
when they released the disc, they committed a stance violation, 802.07.A.2,
