It was our first hole. we started on the back nine. Looking back, probably a mistake. But even on the 1st hole other people were teeing off on our time.


Well, here’s your problem. You jumped in front of someone.

Nothing pisses me off more in golf than having a smooth pace going, getting to the turn and some a-hole has jumped in front of our group and now we’re waiting every shot. He’s prob getting a warning shot or two.

No problem with them hitting into you. People who hop onto the back nine are the worst.

I’d let them play through and then rope a 290 yd drive over their heads as they drove to their 200 yard drive.

I would try the stinger back but would shank it instead.

If they do it twice, the a 3 wood off the deck back at them seems to work.

Pro Tip -

Punch the largest guy first, if he falls you are golden.

This happened to me Sunday. I had the earliest tee time. I was walking. Light little mist, little damp no big deal. I think I had a good 30 minutes before the next group teed off.
I get to the turn and the numb nuts golf starter let’s a twosome start on the back nine in front on me.
These frickers were slow and were hitting extra balls. So I jumped their arse at number 11 and told them I was playing through. One of the idiots says we didn’t realize you were waiting on us? I said me standing in the fairway with my hands on my hips didn’t give it away or me hitting down on y’all didn’t ring a bell?
Freaking idiots. It takes a lot to get me unglued. So when the ranger rode by I asked him in my kindest voice. Wtf were you thinking?

Mid day this past summer I had a tee time by myself and decided to walk. As in hitting my second shot I see 4 college age guys blowing past me to skip the first hole. When I got to the next tee box I'm already waiting. I got up their arse the next couple of holes until the asked me to play thru. I finish 4 to 5 holes ahead of them even playing extra balls sometimes.

Yes I hit down on them literally on 10, then 11. Then I realized that wasn’t working.

Somebody last week was stunned I asked him to play through. They were a 4some playing 15-20 minutes a hole and it was wide open behind him. It was cart path only and they were playing a scramble and I was waiting at every single shot for 6 holes. Some people have no self-awareness and more than likely are new to the game and don't understand traditional norms on course etiquette.

Agreed. Some people just can’t comprehend or understand maybe I guess spatial awareness or something- just like the person that camps out in the left hand lane and doesn’t understand or see the cars piled up behind them.
