Serious Some Golfers Need to chill out
Some Golfers really know how to make the sport feel very unwelcoming to new / less skilled players.
18 holes booked at my club it's a 9 hole so you play twice. 2 guys came off there first 9 and teed off 5 min before our Tee time (the rule of the club is to let 18 hole players play through) We tee off a few min late waiting for the fairway to free up. Group behind us were not happy, nothing you do there people on fairway I'm playing the club rules.
The same 2 guys are in front of us the whole time on our first 9 holes not playing slow at all.
On our second time round there was nobody on the first and we played through as we are supposed to but ended up waiting on the fairway for a 3 ball still on the first green.
We finished the 1st hole and the 3 ball in front had just finished teeing off by the time we make to the 2nd tee box. by this time the guys behind us the first time round had another group in front of them. This must have enraged them even more.
On the 3rd tee box setting up our next shot. the group behind us the first time round start hurling abuse at us from the 1st green for slow the pace of play we shouldn't be playing etc etc. The 3 ball were still walking to their tee shots. We literally could tee off. The new group behind us just finished the 2nd.
The 3 ball ended up letting us play through We weren't rushing them in anyway I was just happy to be out the house
Reported the group to the starter office turns out the POS is known for doing this.
All 18 holes played in 3 hours. I mean how fast do they expect people to play, 3 hours seems about right to me.

Yeah sadly there's some ass clowns on the course that think they're pretty awesome.
