As long as it's in the bars of the basket, it's in.
803.13 Holing Out

A. A player who fails to play any hole or fails to hole out on any hole during the round may be disqualified, at the discretion of the director, using the following guidelines:
(1) Holes missed due to late arrival may be scored and penalized according to section 804.02.
(2) Inadvertently failing to hole out (as determined by a majority of the group or an official) shall result in 2 penalty throws being added to the number of throws plus penalty throws already taken on the hole. The hole shall then be considered completed.
(3) Intentionally failing to hole out (emergency, injury, plane flight, etc.) constitutes withdrawal from competition. The player shall be withdrawn from competition and officially listed as "Did Not Finish" on the scorecard and in the event results.

B. Disc Entrapment Devices: In order to hole out, the thrower must release the disc and it must come to rest supported by the chains or within one of the entrapment sections. This includes a disc wedged into or hanging from the lower entrapment section but excludes a disc resting on top of, or hanging outside of, the upper entrapment section. The disc must also remain within the chains or entrapment sections until removed.

C. Object Targets: In order to hole out, the thrower must release the disc and it must strike
the marked target area on the object as specified by the director.




We just had a player hit a 245ish "wedgie" for 500 smackers.
what basket is that. looks to have 3 sets of chains and big ol' bars.
it is/does, i dont know what kind it is but they're at the local course in Brandon, Fl. it's the Limona course

Damn, that is one hell of a basket. Does it catch as well as it looks?
actually it catches really well and is harder for a disc to spin around in the chains and come out due to the 3 sets of chains
Yes, it counts...unless it pops out before you remove it.
Nope. Once it's at rest, the disc gets replaced there if it pops out. See rule 803.07B Interference.
Not true actually. If another player knocks it out it would get replaced due to 803.07B, but if I simply falls out on it's own, or "pops out" as Disc-O described, it would not count as being holed out per 803.13B.

"The disc must also remain within the chains or entrapment sections until removed."
Nope. Disc gets replaced per 803.07B first so it can then be holed out properly per 803.13. All that's required is the group agree the disc was at rest before it popped out.
If the group doesn't agree....then what? should have run and grabbed it instead of trying to negotiate the "At Rest call" lmao
