In Response To: May I put a checker on the bar before moving my own? (Daniel Murphy)

Is it acceptable (according to the rules that most people play by), if I make a move that hits, to pick up the hit checker first and put it on the bar before I move my own checker?

No. I'd call the director if my opponent was in the habit of removing my checkers from the board before moving his own.

What, precisely, is your objection to this method of moving checkers?
