Beautiful day so my wife and I went out to play golf mid afternoon. Course is packed and super slow. We are waiting on every hole. We get to hole 4 a par...

Weirfan OK, sorry, should have thought of that. Sometimes I think about how much it cost with the food/drink cart plus tip on top of expensive stuff. Try to remind myself each time they didn't set the price.

Seems every place has a tip jar now and it hurts what I think of typical tip jobs such as F/B folks.

Weirfan when you get matched up with others just be courteous and take the high road

Being matched up by the starter is one thing but asking a jerk like that to join you is another entirely. I'd definitely
play with him if assigned by a starter but after he was a jerk to my wife and I, I don't think I could ask him to join us.

Fair enough.

One of the reasons I dislike starting .....It's amazing the excuses some golfer will give to NOT have to be paired up with others. I've heard....

they are walking we are in a cart ( 20-30% of the players out there are walking whatbdoes it matter)
They are smokers and we are not ( so? )
We like to take our time ( wrong answer)
My favourite, we might have somebody joining us later ( ok go pay their green and cart fee to book that spot and we'll send them out to whatever hole you are on when they arrive.....crickets, or we have an open 4 some spot in 2 hours if you want to wait for them )

Actually, During Covid we actually had some people pay for the 4 spots in the tee time to be able play alone

I can see it if people are being asked to share a cart, but that isnt what is being asked of them....

Driving in the outdoors in separate carts and you cannot play with another 2 some because they mught spark up a cig, cigar or joint ?

sorry ....DENIED !

Weirfan I do use the cigar (I smoke cigars on the course) to not ride with people I don't know, but not to play with-assuming they aren't dumping ashes anywhere, especially the green.

Yup, deal breaker. I'd rather pack my stuff and go home. That nasty smell goes a long way. Most times I don't mind cigars though.

Yeah, I'd rather huff diesel fumes. LOL
