What's your point, are you saying the rule should be deleted from the rulebook or what?
BTW there is no logic involved, it is a clearly written rule.
If it were a clearly written rule why weren't they called for it?

There is an "and" in there.
As far as the 'and', if we want to get into semantics. Define 'should'
I have no data to support this but I suspect that players are less likely to call violations when they are being videoed, perhaps for fear of not getting it right or protecting how they come across on camera. Thoughts?
This makes sense Chuck. I think it goes even further. Players seem to be reluctant to call violations on each other in every professional round day in and day out. Nikko's outburst on Thur. during his stretch of poor play made him a walking courtesy violation. Outburst and expletives were flying. No one called any of it. I think the mindset of most professionals is if it doesn't effect them directly then they don't call it.
which I think plays into your point chuck about players wanting to preserve their reputation and not deal with possible drama.

i think you're being a bit dramatic about this man.
This^ it does look hella awkward though when you see a bunch or people with their back turned while one dude is puttingi think you're being a bit dramatic about this man. for the most part when you see somebody with their back turned its the guy who just putted out and is walking away from the basket. generally people in that case will stop and pause for the guy putting, it's an attempt to be courteous and considerate.
agreed.thats pretty much the attitude of the general population these days, doesnt surprise me that it spills over into sport.
I credit your comment to your immaturity.
You strike me as the type that would meet an amputee and shout "Holy **** dude, what happened to your leg??"
No couth....

In general, no one calls violations. I played 5 years ago and that might have been about the peak of it or a year later. Seems watered down now with the second division and not well attended. Who has 15 stars now besides Kenny?
How far is it to the edge of the front fairway, and then from there to just over the hay bales on 17?
In other words, if you're laying up on that hole, what is required.
I think this got lost in the shuffle. Anybody know?
