While playing the Manhattan tourney a sudden thunderstorm crops up. The signal to suspend play is given by the TD. All players mark their lie, but the wind and water have moved and hidden many minis. Where are the players lies?

At the tee. The entire group would replay the hole.

Going on what I was told thanks to the damned weather at this years Frontier, I say closest to the approximate lie as determined by the groups...

WINDY MINIS

This happened to us at the KC wide open in 05 and they told us that if our minis were missing to find the approximate area that we as a group believed the lie was. So at an A-tier I am guessing that would be the proper answer to this poll.

I remember that crap. I was in second after the 1st round and then halfway through the second round I was winning when they called it. The TD only took the first round score so I ended up second instead of first :roll: :roll:

You mean he suspended it and didn't restart after the storm? In other words, canceled the second round? Is that even legal? I would think the second round would still have to be played to make it a fair event. Who was the TD?

I guess if it wasn't a PDGA event there was no recourse but that still seems wrong to do that.

Seems like the TD`s name was Bob?He was the fourth Pro-Master in our group.He was scared and runnin`like hell when the lightning hit another part of the course.{see also The Adventures of Discman}
