Default For the curious

I think I have this mess figured out, and I am sending in my final TD report. At the tourney I had initially scored these two holes as (12) 3+2=5 and (13) 3+3=6, however, after hearing the whole story in greater detail AND consulting some rules gurus I am going submit this scored as follows:

AT: Actual throws that counted
P: Penalty for misplaying hole
PT: Practice Throw

Hole #12: 2AT + 2P + 1PT = 5
Hole #13: 3AT + 2P + 3 PT = 8

The key lesson here is this: if you EVER have a rules question during a sanctioned round, regardless of what your group says, always declare your provisional throws. This is how this SHOULD have worked out for Xander. He should have simply finished out Hole 13 for his 4, then taken his 2 stroke penalty for unintentionally not finishing Hole 12.

Hole #12: 2AT + 2P = 4
Hole #13: 4AT = 4

That would have been a much better result than the 14 he took due to the confusion.

Thanks,

Jeff
