Not very fair as a quiz, as the deceptive real-time view is one the referee will not have. If you watch the mallet's path 'live', you can always compare the track of the ball afterwards. More great videos: thanks, Bob!
Hi Simon, I agree, real time can be very hard. With " hammer strokes" (especially in the hoop impaired stroke )I use as I've said in the text pdf attached, if the mallet is >45 degrees or so the multiple tap is clear because the ball hits into the ground part ads fractionally and then strikes again. Its a guide for referees to need to bear in mind what to look for! I have checked all these selected videos(slowed down to 1000 frames per second) to ensure accuracy, Bob's videos are ecacllent BUT he never comments shows videos without comment, and one makes up ones mind. Look at & then anlyse of the stroke - the APPROACH jump like in golf croquet we give a "bit "more latitude. Similarly the "pass roll stroke" is often a double tap, but condone most time. Remember Laws V7 state "if a fault is likely" ir t is deemed a FAULT. Thanks for comment Regards, James
