Me: “ what kind was it “ Him: “ grey”

Weirfan

Get this all the time, no idea what kind of club they play

Had one last week . It has a red handle.....i actually found it, red NDMC grip.
90+% of clubs get returned to their owner but we still get many each week that go unclaimed . We have a drawer full of rangefinders and bluetooth speakers

Typhoon

Weirfan Us too… rangefinders , Bluetooth speakers and sunglasses. Soooo many. The difference between your place and mine is 90% of the clubs go unclaimed. First off, it’s always shit clubs here… I’ll take a pic sometime of our club lost and found. If anything is oem, it’s 30 years old. And Headcovers/ soft goods and water bottles… my God, our bin overflows amd we throw everything out every couple months. You’d think people would come back for Scotty Headcovers??? Nope.. I put them on a shelf so the scumbags rummaging through the bin don’t take them to sell. But still nobody comes back for them. We have an “Incredible Hulk” fist headcover… it’s f’ing huge… been here for months. Animal Headcovers… nobody comes back for them. We must have 10 of them unclaimed.

Similar story but weirder… actually 2 stories!

Twilight group of shooters come up. They have a BRAND NEW Ping cart bag, paper still in the pockets. They said their friend was coming up and had clubs but no bag and he was going to use it. End of the night the bag was still there so we took it inside. Nobody ever called or came for it. End of the season someone asked if they could buy it. We said ok and sold the bag. The guy paid us for it and never came in to take the bag. The following year… same thing happens… this time a woman buys the bag and says she’ll pick it up next week. She also never returned. We finally sold it to one of the members who plays every day.
Guy leaves his bag in the parking lot at the range. Shooter bag. We pick it up and bring it to the shop. Nobody comes for it. We threw empty Fireball Nips in it where the clubs are. A month later a guy comes in looking for his clubs, they were his. End of the night guess where the clubs are… I’m the parking lot again🙄. I remember Driving by the bag and slamming on the cart brakes and saying “no way “ to myself. I looked inside and the fireball nips were still in it so I knew it was the same bag. Couple weeks later he came back for it. Hasn’t happened again….

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say alcohol was involved.

sdandrea1 Yup, we’re flypaper for morons. Our pro says “hard to believe but every year they are dumber than the last”.

I try to get them to raise the cart prices… they go up $1🙄🙄… really??? A dollar??? We have 70 carts that we used to gas up every 12-14 days. Now we gas them every 7-10 days. IF ANYTHING you should raise the prices just to cover the increase in gas right??

We need less people out there beating the place to death. Raise the price, get a better caliber of golfer, or at least get golfers vs Shooters. The pro says our cart prices are inline with other courses. But he’s looking at shit assed 9 holers. And he’s afraid of it costing seniors too much. Well I’m no rocket scientist but we DO have senior golf rates… how about senior cart rates???

You want a reality show… come here for twilight 😂

Well, that’s reassuring to know, as I haven’t played there in about twenty years. Back then it was just a no pest strip for morons.
My buddy and I would always show up, early, as walk-ins and go right to the back nine (old course configuration) to play a reverse. We joked for years about whether they would ever pair us with golfers.
