Have fun and follow the rules and spirit of disc golf.
The purpose of the ADG Bag Tag Challenge is to add another fun element to personal, league, and tournament rounds of disc golf.
Please display your ADG Bag Tag where others can easily see it.
Getting Started:
Join the ADG Bag Tag Challenge 2025 to receive a ADG Bag Tag ($5)
The Goal:
Your goal is to have the lowest numbered ADG Bag Tag possible and have fun along the way.
Rules of Engagement:
1. ADG Bag Tag Holders who “posses a current ADG Bag Tag in hand” may issue/schedule/participate in challenge(s).
2. Any ADG Bag Tag Holder with a higher ADG Bag Tag number may challenge any player with a lower ADG Bag Tag number to a round of disc golf. $1 is given to the lowest ADG Bag Tag Holder in your division for the challenge.
3. ADG Bag Tag Holders cannot avoid challenges by leaving the ADG Bag Tag at home or by concealing your ADG Bag Tag (see forfeiture).
4. Challenges may be made in person, by telephone, Facebook Group or e-mail. When a challenge via telephone, Facebook Group or e-mail has been accepted, neither player can participate in Casual challenges until the agreed upon match has taken place.
5. The player receiving the challenge can choose the course to be played AND must make a “fair and reasonable” effort to be available within 2 weeks.
6. If the challenger cannot agree to a reasonable time or date for the match within the coming week, the challenge is void and both players may look for new challenges.
7. Once the challenge has been agreed upon, any changes must be agreed upon otherwise a forfeiture may occur.
8. If the challenger has the lowest score for the round, the tags must be exchanged immediately following the round.
9. Challenges are on a round-by-round basis; i.e. challenges are for one round only in a multiple round event.
Automatic Challenges (AC):
• Automatic challenge during any League, Tournament, or Casual/Recreational rounds, if any ADG Bag Tag holder(s) are on your card (in group).
• The challenge does not need to be publicly announced or agreed upon before the start of the round–it is automatic!
• Members may not deny this challenge.
Casual Round Challenges (CRC):
ADG Bag Tag members may casually meet at a course OR agree to meet at a course/time to compete for bag tags in:
• Head-to-Head (me vs. you) challenges.
• Group Challenges, where multiple players each put a ADG Bag Tag at stake during the group round.
• Members may not deny a challenge and then proceed to play a round (see forfeiture).
Proximity & Distance Challenges (PDC) – Event, League or, Tournament Play:
ADG Bag Tag Members “competing in” (proximity) a coordinated Disc Golf event (official or casual) may agree beforehand to compete for ADG Bag Tags while playing in separate cards/groups/divisions (distance), for a given round.
Example: “Let’s see who shoots a lower score in Round 1.”
Exception:
Any Automatic Challenges take precedence over any challenge from another card. You must settle with your current card first.
Relief & Award:
If a member is eligible for an Auto-Challenge AND shoots a better score than the tag holder in the AC round, but is denied his/her new tag due to claims of a “Distance” challenge he/she may claim the tag s/he is owed from any of the distance-competitors.
Wins, Ties, and Exchanges:
Q: How do I win?
A: The player with the lowest score at the end of the challenge round earns the lowest numbered ADG Bag Tag among the challengers.
Q: I won, when do I receive my winning ADG Bag Tag?
A: ADG Bag Tags must be exchanged immediately following the round.
Q: What happens if we have a tie?
A: In the event of a tie, the player who started with the lowest numbered ADG Bag Tag will be awarded the lowest numbered ADG Bag Tag. This may require some sorting in a group challenge.
Rematches:
Challengers who have just won, may, but do not have to accept/schedule a rematch challenge from a player that the s/he just beaten unless one of the following occurs:
1. Either player completes another, separate challenge.
2. One week has passes.,
Whichever comes first.
Exception:
Rematches are overridden by automatic challenges that occur during a subsequent round of a multi-round event.
Eligible Tags:
Members may only challenge members who posses the ADG Bag Tag; no other Bag Tags are eligible to participate in ADG challenges. You must have your ADG Bag Tag with you to challenge or accept challenges.
Forfeiture:
Each Bag Tag belongs to the entire ADG Bag Tag Challenge 2025 and should be accessible to all ADG Bag Tag Holders. Any ADG Bag Tag Holder will be required to surrender his/her Bag Tag if:
• He/She is found to be purposely concealing the ADG Bag Tag, especially with a low number.
• Refusing and/or “forgetting” to carry his/her ADG Bag Tag, especially to events where members are “likely” to be present.
• Refusing Automatic Challenges.
• Generally denying ADG Bag Tag access to other members (TBD by 2 or more League Coordinators).
If you lose your ADG Bag Tag, please report it immediately. You may then purchase the next lowest number ADG Bag Tag available. Replacement tags, if available, will cost $5.00.
Rules are subject to change and the ADG League Coordinators will decide all disputes. The ADG League Coordinators reserves the right to revoke your ADG Bag Tag at our discretion (TBD by 2 or more League Coordinators).
