PDGA Rules & Interpretations

I know that players are not to move when someone is putting.

I know that it is best not to be in a players view when they are putting.

I know that after you putt, you are to clear the basket.

I was playing at a tourny and we had a basket surrounded.  It was my turn, and I made my putt.  I cleared my disc from the basket and I started to walk away towards my cart.  All of a sudden, another player had putt and missed.  He started cussing up a storm and yelled that people shouldn't move while players are putting.

I just stood there with a "WTF' look on my face. 

What should I have been done ??

I feel that I didn't do anything wrong.

I feel that he should have waited until I was out of his view.

After all, I was clearing the basket.

OR should I have not cleared the basket, or should I have cleared the basket and walked about twenty feet away from the basket and stood still ?  I still would have been in view if I did.

 

What is the ruling on this situation??

It doesnt matter as long as it is suspended by the basket itself it cant land on top of the pin to count

I have sprinted to remove putts that were wedged in the side of the basket, but I don't do much sprinting nowadays.

So if it ever happens to you, leave the bag and SPRINT. I certainly would.

Or a soft disc.

wow that's an impressive arm!

Hell yes its an Ace. If you clear out the disc before it falls out. If it falls to the ground before you reach it then you must mark it as it lies.

A Player in our group teed off and stuck his disc in the side of the basket, it was bent and trapped by the metal. Ace?

Yes a hand can be a supporting point.
