Default Re: Things that annoy you about your fellow golfers

Also w/r/t slow play, I buy into the school of thought that says that most hacks emulate the pros, and the pros are said to be wayyyyyyyyyyyy slower than they were 30+ years ago, looking at stuff from every angle, deliberating forever over club selection, long pre-shot routines, etc. Then the weekend hack goes and does these things.

What's interesting is the subset of golfers that's the fastest is the one you'd consider to be the slowest: old men. They blaze around courses - whether they're walking or riding - like they have to be somewhere, when in reality they don't have to be anywhere, ever.
