802.02 Mini Marker Discs

A. Mini marker discs shall be used to mark a player's lie as
required by these rules. Mini marker discs must have a diameter of between 7
and 15 centimeters and a height not exceeding 3 centimeters.
Did you hear the story how I called Cris Bellinger on this very rule during a PDGA tourney?

He was trying to use a can of chewing tobacco as his marker. I told him it wasn't a legal marker, so we measured it. Easily 4+ centimeters in height!

Ahh the good old days...

PS I usually mark with 3 minis: Discraft Ultrastar over the smaller and larger lightning combo. Maybe with calipers you could determine if it's over 3 centimeters but I doubt it.

Hath this whole world been mired in madness?
Remain ye men of faculty complete,
Of full arithmetic and prudence fair,
Attending to our noble bond and contract?
Or does here stand the last remaining man
To give a fig for rules and order yet,
No noble savage, but a stave unbroken
Who loves the law and bids it no misdeed.
I’ll not be bent to lawlessness. Mark it nought, if we be men of honour.
