Yeah but you wouldn't think twice about someone flipping it back before that was a rule, now if you ever see someone flipping it you know something isn't right.
true. idk, its more fun to imagine a corporate scandal between the pdga and discraft

Did he not call out the strokes he was writing down? Did you guys not take turns with the card?In my first ever Tier B last year there was guy on our card pencil whipping the rest of us. I didn't take notice until another member of the card discreetly mentioned it. After a hole or two more the Enforcer in our group confronted the guy with our support. Until this tournament, I've only noticed players making the rare "mistake" on the recalling the actual shots it took to complete a hole. I can understand losing stroke count on a hole where the loss of drive is followed by multiple OB shots to add up to monstrous number, but, deliberately shaving strokes in an attempt to win cash or prizes is classless and shows a lack of integrity. Now I know why some guys keep their own card.
I've been called on following a putt and do not mind, how else am I going to learn?
Marking the Lie 803.03
Can not touch (flip) the disc until the Lie is established with a Mini, otherwise it is cheating.
During casual play, I use bar coasters instead of minis. Keeps me focused on learning tournament behavior and losing a biodegradable coaster is better than leaving a plastic mini behind.That's one of those things (to flip or not flip) that I'd never let bother me when friends do it during casual play, which is all I'm likely to ever do. I'm going to try to use the mini from now on just to get into the habit.
Having cameras watch everyone's play does wonders for encouraging "self-policing" calls...A lot of what earns ball golfers large pro fees is that they self call all of their violations. Ball golf claims it is the only self policing sport. Disc Golfers need to honest up!
What did the guy with the card do during these 25 minutes?
Umm, they should have been DQ'ed. :\Played in a tourney where one guy refused to let anyone else keep score.I really did'nt mind until the round was over and went to initial the card and him and his buddy had lied about thier scores.Told the TD and he assesed that they would each have 7 strokes added to the final score.:clap:

Against the rules unless the group agrees.Played in a tourney where one guy refused to let anyone else keep score.
I inital my cards because I make sure I add it. We did something in the last tourney that I had never done, usually the scorekeeper on the last hole totals and the players check their own, we swapped with each other and double checked each other's score...I liked that because I don't want or need extra strokes.
I would be very leary of anyone who insisted on keeping score, even at US women's the caddies took turns.
I always keep the score. The routine creates good focus.
