Golf Course brawl

Police stop golf course brawl that involved weapons and resulted in broken bones

I kinda get it, slow play is my number one pet peeve on a course.

thought it was funny that they are called "golf buggies" over there

Agreed, and things tend to escalate when people hit into you.

I'm tempted to hit into slow players, But i might be getting too old to back up my mouth.

I'm never above hitting into a slow group ahead of me. "Man. Sorry about that. I must've really got hold of that one..."

Justified. If the group behind you is constantly waiting on you, let them play through.

When my dad taught me how to golf, he spent the first round pretty much doing nothing but teaching me golf edicit. Replace your divits, fix your ball marks, rake the bunker, don't be loud, don't walk through someone's line, let faster players play through, etc.

The very first thing I tell new players on my golf team is to keep pace. No one really cares about anything else.

That said, I have friends I play with who've golfed for years and have no idea where they are on the course. One guy spends a minute with a rangefinder on nearly every shot, and he's a double bogey golfer.

All depends on how busy the course is. If it's stacked, and someone hits into me, I've been known to hit it back.

the problem I have faced is that the group trying to play through doesn't realize there is a group going slow in front of you or further up. So instead they are pissing off the group in the middle by hitting into them thinking it is going to accomplish something.

I'd wait until the turn and take a shit in your golf bag. Right in the ball pocket.

I'd tee it up and hit it back at you

Nah. It'd most likely be a booze shit, like runny mud. You ain't teeing that up.

And just 'cause you said that, I'd wipe my ass on your ball towel.

One guy spends a minute with a rangefinder on nearly every shot,

I've found that my rangefinder saves a slew of time. In literally 10 seconds, I know the distance vs walking over to a sprinkler head or pacing back from the 150 marker.

Yeah, awareness is the most important part and some folks just have none.

People who ask to play thru on a stacked course should be publicly flogged with ball-retrievers.

a double bogie golfer doesn't need to know the exact yardage, isn't going to be precise enough with the club to matter....trust me...I..ahhh...I might know someone like that.

I CAN be precise with my shot and knowing exact yardage helps in selecting my club.

but I find a gps watch does the job fine for me.

LOL..I CAN do it sometimes too. More often than not I select the right club, but hitting it clean is where it fucks me up.

Word.

I know which my 140-yard club is, I'm just not sure which swing it is. . .
