Ok, I have only been playing for four months but am addicted completely, and from what I have been told, am pretty good for only just beginning. So learning to play within the rules "completely" is what I am focusing on now, and I have read the rules many times.
The question: After the tee-off and on subsequent throws, excluding the putt(within 10m), I have seen and heard many diff things. I have learned, and been doing, that you could do a run up(Xstep in my case) to your marker as long as when you released you have one support(what I interpret as a foot) at least 30cm(12 inches) behind the marker and in line....but the more I play I see people just stand behind their marker and throw. I also remember reading somewhere that you could run up as long as the disc is released within that 30cm distance.
What's the actual rule? And how do people play these shots?
thanks
