a disc ends up OB after a throw.
"you're not allowed to re-use that OB disc until next hole"
to rule out 'speed of play' as a possible factor in ruling here, by mystery the disc ends up about 5 yards from you, in an open uncovered lie, but in OB situation.
A: are you allowed to pick up that disc before you make your next throw?
B: are you allowed to re-use that disc for your next throw(s) during this particular hole, should you wish to do so?
i had not heard of this before, but heard it twice in two weeks time.
i can not find anything about this in the rules, except for a reference to 'retrieving a disc' 803.04 H when speaking of re-throw, which this clearly isn't
