I shot off the deck round the end of the log but had my boot on the peg. I understand the log is touching the peg argument but one could argue by the same token the peg is touching this twig which touches this leaf which touches this clump of grass. Come to that, the peg is touching the ground so so long as I'm not levitating I'm good to shoot from anywhere!
Think this does need looking at and clarifying. Because I'm 6' and can still bend a bit I could avoid having to shoot up the peg gun in shoulder as the course setter intended.
