Don't get all offended, SDS, if you don't fit the bill, but the average professional umpire of amateur ball is ignorant, ch!cken$sh!t, or both when it comes to calling balks.
In my roughly 2200 game career of probably 90% 2-man, 10% 3-man, I have outcalled my partners on balks I'll bet 20-1.

No offense taken. I agree with your assessment. I would go one step further and say that a better than average percentage fit the bill, based on some partners and umpires I have observed over the years.
