2:16 here’s what I have to say about the putting there is a way to standardize baskets and make putting more difficult at the same time which would negate the whole circle change in my opinion and that is make the pro tour play on marksmanship baskets 💯🤷♂️
I don't think a 20m circle is gonna work at all competitive levels. I think the best options are 1) 15 meters for all PDGA-events 2) 20m for pro MPO, 15m for pro FPO & ama MPO, 10m for ama FPO and age restricted divisions
Dumb suggestion from Bjerkaas.. That simply moves illegal putts out to 20+, instead of 10+. This doesn't solve the problem - and very obviously so. Also, a 20m circle has a circumference of 125-metres compared to 63-metres. Who's gonna mark out a circle that large? It's bad enough marking out 10m circles for an event!
Its so hard to stand still putt from 66' or 20 meters. I think this will take a lot of the fun out of the game as putting will now be too hard. I could see the pro tour going to this but all sanctioned events is so dumb to me. Why do they just assume doubling it. What the stats there. Basketball didn't extend the 3point line by a factor of 2. Just seems like a lame excuse to not fix the rule that is in place. like say one foot must stay on the ground at all times or something along those lines.
or even say capping it at 15 meters or 50 ft. Plus you have to take into account all of the female players and how far that would be for them too. Or just modify the existing rule and keep things the same distances
Keep the rule the way it is or allow step and jump putts from any distance. It’s a putting technique. People use different run up techniques why not allow different putting techniques.
Rule change? Heck, I’m still waiting for the existing rule of time limit to be consistently called and enforced. Maybe I’ve watched too many other professional sports that have time rules (eg NBA 24 second clock) and as a result I have unrealistic expectations that “professional” and “rule violations have actual consequences” should go hand in hand.
@@ragebaitcommenter How did you get that's he's "mad" with him being in favor of making it more difficult? 😂 If anything it sounds like you're terrified you won't be able to foot fault every putt.
Pretty sure there are other ways of getting a disc to fly besides jump/step putts. Where does it say fpo and am's should have the same opportunity to make longer putts as mpo?
@@schmoe5070 I don’t think that making it easier to score makes a sport more beginner friendly. Of course I know players who play actual courses based on what the “feel” the pars should be (eg they call a par 3 a par 4 because they can’t regularly par the hole), so I guess I can see your point.

People who don’t step putt can learn how to step putt if they want the same distance advantage.
Looking forward to see what Schusterick does with Prodigy.
I love the proposed rule change! I'm nowhere near a pro and have no problem stand stilling a 65-footer

Do you guys see that GK put out an announcement that they're starting their own tour
As a player who stopped jump putting I fully endorse this change.
Why don’t they fix their crappy scoring app instead of deciding to reinvent the wheel on C2 putts?
They should have just left it with U-Disc in my opinion 🤷♂️💯
@ 💯 !!!
How does the app call foot faults?
@ it doesn’t. But the PDGA forced everyone to use an app that barely works. And instead of fixing it this is their focus??
Good!! Athletes can putt just fine from circle 2 without jumping or stepping. We need this to separate the pros from the Joe's.
You sound mad bro

Step putting from 33ft makes me want to stop watching sport. How about no step putting period.
I would def lose interest if they shrink the basket. That debate, is to much tinkering on a good thing.
what's the problem with it?
It's only terrible putters that complain about jump putts. Instead of crying get good scrubs.
I can’t imagine the female pros or amateurs being able to get it there from 20 m

@ it would result in less made putts making the game way less fun and way less beginner friendly as well .

Lame rule change. Why not feet instead of meters that would be a better change.
