What to know

You must drop it yourself, without throwing or spinning it. It must not touch your body or equipment before hitting the ground. It must land and finish in the required relief area.

On the course

If correctly dropped twice but each time it finishes outside the relief area, place it where it first touched the ground on the second drop.
