      I played tennis through college and every match until finals of a tournament you're responsible for calling lines. So if I hit a ball on or near the line my opponent can call it out and that's it. No line judge, no replay, all you can ask is if they are sure and 100% of the time they say yes. I used to make snarky comments that lines were "in" on my side of the court…

      @@GuamLicker Played competitive tennis aswell and I'd argue, that in tennis it's not as bad somehow. You start calling the lines at the age of 5 or so in pretty much the first practices you attend to. Sometimes there are emotions, sometimes there is foul play. I've had to call for a judge to finish a game a few times. But still, most of the time, few tough calls maybe, no hard feelings after matches.
      In disc golf I feel like the emotion is very different somehow? First of all, these things slid past for a long time, now you gotta start calling something that people are not used to getting called for. Not only that, I feel like there is a dangerous social aspect in play... Won't call any competitive player a cheat, but will two good friends call each other in a tough spot? Will the players be inequal in terms of this rule? Absolutely.

    I absolutely hate it when peopl get mad after they get called, which is why I hesitate to call foot faults. Even dumber when a pro does that. And to people who say "few inches doesn't change the end results", it's not about the distance you gain by stepping over your lie, the point is that it's a lot easier to throw far when you don't have to think about where your foot is supposed to go.

    I get calling foot faults if a player is stepping at an angle that gives them a better advantage on their line. But it seems like 90% of these clips are just guys missing the mark by fractions. As a fan, I’m here to watch the best disc golfers in the world do their thing, and in the case of most of these clips, the guys would’ve hit the same line whether they were a few inches closer to their disc or not. Wouldn’t mind if this rule was revised a little bit

    @undeadarmy19 Před rokem +13

    4:10 that is one of the dumbest foot faults I've EVER seen called. You have a 20cm by 30cm(about 8" by 12" in freedom units) box behind your disc to step in to as your "lie". That is 20cm wide and 30cm long. As long as ANY part of your shoe is inside the box, you're inside the box, even the very tip of your toes.
    That man was a bit farther back than average, but he was def inside of 12", or at the VERY least, EXTREMELY close to it. Calling a foot fault on someone for being at MOST an inch too far behind their disc on a 300' throw is just a POS thing to do.

    It happens enough they should just make stepping on your disc legal - I mean you could mark it and get those extra inches forward anyway - not like it's really any kind of an advantage.

      That would increase your lie by the diameter of the disc. Your lie is 20cm behind the marker, to the marker. If your disc is the marker and you permit stepping on it, your lie is now bigger because you have 20cm plus the diameter of the disc. There's no point having a 20cm lie rule if it's not always 20cm.

    It’s possible Paul was wrong about Simon’s foot fault. If you look at top players in slow mo, their foot usually doesn’t release and rotate through until the disc is out of their hand. I think this is something that needs to be thought about with the PDGA rule’s committee. If someone plants their foot 4” behind their disc, but after releasing the foot rotates through and they touch their disc or mini with their foot. It could be on the follow through when the disc is out of their hand.
    Watch the top players in slow mo, their plant foot is usually parallel until the disc is out,… then the foot rotates through.

      Idk why its not ok as long as you are anywhere mostly in line with but still behind your disc. Especially on open fairways. Seems silly to make people land a run up into an area that small where being behind it is also a fault.

    • @Met2402
      @Met2402 Před rokem

      ​@@torridknight783maybe you land behind a tree. Would it then just be okay to take your throw five feet behind it? That would be "in line behind the disc", but the throw would be very different from there.
      And it doesn't affect the rules if the fairway is open or not. Same rules for every hole.

    Foot faults makes it less fun, I think they should try to eliminate the foot placement challenge. From the tee it's no problem, but on the following throws I see two ways to "fix" it.
    Either make the bounds for the lie bigger, like a 1 meter box (3 feet). This would make scrambling easier, but it's the same for everyone and really if you mess up your shot but is lucky enough to end up right behind a bush instead of in it, that is just luck anyway.
    Second option I think is more controversial, walk-up only allowed from tee and the following shots are all standstills, that can be enforced but It would change the sport a lot.

    • @kinghorton418
      @kinghorton418 Před 7 měsíci

      stand stills on 2nd shot seems easiest to apply scrutiny and merges with prexisting rules. Let the player choose their stance from the lie, at which if the chosen stance is illegal, the card will inform the player, if not the player throws.

    If you can't guarantee you'll land on your lie on a fairway drive, you just can't do a full x-step drive. It's unfair to all the people who DO throw standstill (or a small step) to avoid a stance violation.
    In AMs it's essentially the Wild West, people run up and haul off on fairway drives without even thinking about their lie.

    Yeah i'd say if Simon and Ricky were faulting on their drives then James Conrad pretty much footfalls every time he drives. That Garrett Griffy one did not look like a foot fault and neither did the stokely one 🤷‍♀️
    The point is I see worse foot faults all the time in present day tournaments that no one is calling.

    • @peter007crouch
      @peter007crouch Před rokem

      At the time, the rule for where you could put your foot was different. Now you have an A4-Paper behind your disc/marker. The old rule was, that you extend the line between you line of play throught the middle of your marker/disc and then you had to touch that line with your foot. Therefore it was a foot foul then, but probably would not be a fould by todays rule.

  • @zanierrules
    @zanierrules Před rokem +1

    Besides putting, foot-faults are totally useless. If you're running up, then you should be given some leeway to just be in the "area behind your disc". If you're stand-still, just have a foot behind the disc. Done. If you step on your disc that's ok too as you're even more precisely throwing from the lie.

    • @Met2402
      @Met2402 Před rokem

      Having no spesific rule to state where your foot has to be would not work. There has to be clear limits to where you can throw from and not just "behind your disc" , because that would be very open to interpretation.

      The problem is most cards aren't filmed. So if you are lead card and are under intense scrutiny from video reviews, and I'm chillin on chase card w no cameras, guess who gets to relax more and be less likely to get a penalty stroke? This would only work if we had cameras on EVERY card.

      I agree, going longer doesn't give the advantage changing your angle or decreasing your distance would give. Only very certain circumstances would throwing way behind your spot be advantageous.

      Do you guys only play wide open golf courses? Being able to play anywhere behind your lie would be a massive advantage on so many bad throws in wooded courses. It would change the entire sport so only run-up shots would be thrown. About half of every type of shot would disappear.
