    RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedBurner [NC]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} !FeedValidator [NC]
    RewriteRule ^feed/?([_0-9a-z-]+)?/?$ http://feeds.feedburner.com/tutzone[R=302,NC,L]

      Thanks for the tip.
      Do we need to add following line before starting of your code?
      <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>

      and this after your code?
      </IfModule>
