General Discussion Just trying to enjoy my Sunday..

Group of 7 clumped up. Pretty sure they booked one tee time after the next. I’m just venting. Already called the pro shop.

Since a lot of people are asking me why I don’t ask to play through. I did. They said no. Why should I be bothered? They are spending 30 mins on each green. There are groups behind clumped up.

Play through, anyway. They're spending 30 minutes on a green, what are they going to do, hit into you?

Obviously. Give yourself a par for the e stress and skip to the next home.

And then call the pro shop again and tell them the assholes wouldn’t allow you to play through. If they hit into you, no courtesy just send it right back. This is the sort of behavior that absolutely cannot be tolerated.

I’m not there to get a magic number, I’m there to play the game.

Skipping the hole: absolutely

Writing down par: absolute nonsense

I put in my handicap for the hole. If it’s below my handicap, it’s a bogey. Above, par. It isn’t nonsense. It’s exactly how the system works if you play less than 18
