golf_bhoy 1 course I play is in a county Forest Preserve, complete with gun range for the co. sheriff dept., and it is also just 1/4 mi. south of the int'l airport. Another has a 'estate compound' 1/2 encircling the course, where the owner has a skeet shooting range, and they shoot those shotguns almost every day; the echoes throught the woods are quite loud of course. A couple others are built right along very busy 4 lane streets. Can think of only 1 in the area that is really off the beaten path, but it is now closed for good, yet, had a highway running past it also. Life is noise. Get used to it PGA.

It's not about noise per se but a sudden noise can mess with you. I don't care who you are, if I yell at the top of your swing it's likely to bother you. But I don't care if people are talking around me.
My only ask is that people in my 4some let me have the teebox and be quiet while I'm hitting. Can't stand it when players get up on the box and stand in my periphery. Just stand behind me and shut up for 10 seconds. Thank you.
Yep, they’re trying to keep honors.
Some of y'all are a "special" kind of bunch.
