Default New 2010 Foot Fault Rule Enforcement

Interesting stuff on how the PDGA desires to enforce foot faults this year:
http://www.dgcoursereview.com/forums...ad.php?t=11704

Was more informative before the Feldy vids got pulled.

In a nutshell: both feet flat on the ground behind your marked lie to demonstrate balance before moving past the lie.

Next year they'll be making you stick your left leg out and shake it all about.

I have dinked so many putts following those darn rules in league and I mention to Russel Phegley that he is not supposed to just walk thru his putt from a few feet away. This is not PDGA blah blah blah.....
This scenario is not the end of the world but it happens every league out at moffitt. It is not too much of a big deal, but it makes wonder what other rules might this person be breaking? It does boil down to using hard earned money to play in a league and others are winning prizes by circumventing the rules, league after league showing new players to the game the wrong way. I personally don't plan on playing a pdga tournament ever again, but I do my best to play by the rules that pertain to how the game is played.

and yeah, I called Russell out, but his money isn't hard earned doh!

really simple,rules are rules. in league everyone gets one warning and thats it. if someone argues in a tourney im betting a stroke or two can be added very easily. what are the actual infractions?

I had a certain member of our club call me out on a foot fault in Victoria on my fairway shot after he comes out of the woods with a puff of smoke. Talk about a double take.
