In Response To: A US Backgammon Tournament rule query from R.G.B. (Michael Petch)

player is bearing off and removes a man and places it on the bar.

If the player picked up the checker, hit his clock and then put it on the bar, I would agree with the ruling, but that's pretty much the only realistic scenario I can imagine, where I would agree.

The checker is not borne off until the player has ended his turn.
