There are all kinds of things that could come up. Only limited to the imagination of the player.
Say a player intentionally leaves a hole score blank. Oh, I got a 3 on that one....
Who knows what kind of stuff would happen, but it would eventually happen. Probably unintentionally, but having rules raises awareness and keeps this stuff to a minimum.
If you compromise something as serious as the score, there isn't any part of the game that can't be compromised. It might be okay for local events or leagues, but not professional tournaments.

Nate, you know that I know what it takes to run tournaments. I helped you check scores and sort cards at Glass Blown, and have helped at many other PDGA events and even now ran my own little event. Of course TD's are busy, but we're already checking all the scores, and as long as there is sufficient help it wouldn't add a considerable amount of time.nastyNate wrote:what the hell....just leave it for the TD to do. it's not like they do anything anyway
These are completely different situations that would cause a problem with or without certain penalties.Schoen-hopper wrote:When you take the responsibility off the player it opens the door for everything else.

,4 under. Par is 72 right?
I think the rule does make it easier though, takes out the human evaluation of the event and makes it more cut and dry.
