I've never been called for a foot fault. It's an honor thing, as it is with everyone I play casual rounds with. Foot faults are called on ourselves and don't need to be seconded. No warning.

However, I stand by my observation that most guys that call foot faults are d-heads. I didn't say all guys, but most are.

If someone is obviously attempting to cheat, there isn't a hesitation in calling them out on it. Whether they have honor or not, is up to them.

Maybe this fun depleting discussion is why I don't find tournaments to be fun. Playing with honorable opponents is a blast.

Do what ever you like , there is no cheating within the rules. I believe this is called strategy.

I've never given out warnings for foot faults, but I have pointed it out to a kid I was playing with (tourney round) but made sure everyone knew I wasn't "officially" flagging him for it, just to try to avoid it in the future.

Although I could see myself being more of a d-bag if I didn't have the bad habit of leaving the ground before my release on jump putts
