Woman comes in and says her son left his clubs at the range yesterday and she was looking for them. I get her in the cart and drive over to where the range is. I ask her how he left his clubs there…. Didn’t he notice he didn’t have his bag? She said she didn’t know, he was with his father. I said, neither one of them noticed?
I check everywhere… nothing. He tells her over the phone he left them in one of the stalls or by the putting green, couldn’t remember. Now there is a junior clinic going on and they are using most of the range. I look in every stall. Nothing. I ask one of the women running the clinic and she saw clubs on a table at the school but thinks someone is using them. A lot of the little kids don’t have clubs. So 10 minutes into this she tells me….
Her kid is 6’10”.🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄. Now, I’m thinking he’s a kid, she says nothing when I’m shaking down 5 year olds and their clubs. Then she tells me they are PXG 5,7 and 9 irons only, no bag. Again…🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

Never found them.

Guy comes in has a 10:20 tee time. Comes early to pick up rentals to go to the range. Guy talks like like he’s punch drunk. Real dummy…. Asks how to get to the range. Pro tells him and the guy says.” I gutta walk?” Pro says “yes, do you know if your group is walking or riding?” Guys said “I know nuthin, they told me to go play golf”. So he walks out of the pro shop muttering that he has to walk to the range…. ( 2 minute walk)

Guy comes back 5 minutes later. Walks in the shop, puts the clubs against the coffee maker , takes his shirt off and throws it at the pro 😂. He says.” I put money in the machine and nuthin came out and the girl up there said I couldn’t hit where I wanted I had to go to another spot”. Pro says, the only girl up there is running a junior clinic so she probably told you you couldn’t hit in the middle of the kids in the clinic… those mats are reserved. Guy turns around and walks out just wearing his wife beater, covered in tattoos doing his tough guy walk. 😂😂😂😂

    I’ve never heard of a golf course requiring their customers to submit to background checks and academic credentials verification upon check in.

    But maybe yours should.

    Walterjn I think we get the people that were thrown off of other courses.

    The woman… very nice woman but Jesus Christ… I’m looking for her kids clubs while I tell her one of the kids might be using them and she says nothing of him being 6’10”….

      John, I am always amazed at the amount of material these people provide for you to tell us. Story upon story of the idiocy you witness on a daily basis. Maybe funny to us but it has to drive you nuts.

        braveheart It does drive me nuts and I need to vent so I tell you guys the stories. They are quite funny when I reread them. I just can’t believe they are real and non stop

          Billerica CC, where intelligence goes to die.

          I'm not sure there was any intelligence to begin with...Sounds like to people who go to Billerica CC were shunned/thrown out/banned from every other "normal" golf venue...I guess there really is a place for everyone...

            Typhoon I feel like I need to go play there one day. There's funny stuff at all clubs, but yours sounds like a true gem. Maybe I can work a round in and then dinner with my kid. As a therapist she would probably enjoy the stories lol.

            Walterjn Typhoon what's in the water over there?? Are the people in your area all brain dead?? Or is it just the ones that show up to the course??

            The approximate elevation of the golf course is + - 250 feet above sea level.

            These folks could be oxygen deprived and may function better no higher than sea level 😇

            I worked with several folks who couldn't function on the 2nd or 3rd story of an office building.

            Ok…. NEW story!!!!!!!

            Woman calls up today and asks about the driving range. She asked if a bucket of large balls was easier to hit than a bucket of small balls.

            I don’t make this up.

              sdandrea1 one of the grounds crew drove up to me when I was playing today..”have you seen Swa? He came in this morning and was hammered. He was drinking a High Noon in behind the range at 7 am. We sent him out to do Sandtraps and I can’t find him”. I said, yeah I just saw him doing the trap on 2.
