Re: Things that annoy you about your fellow golfers

Well he isn't doing it right. You walk way off to the side out of everyone's way, stop and watch when someone behind you hits, then proceed to your ball. There is simply no argument that playing ready golf will cause you to play slower.

OK I see what you're saying. This guy would hit and then walk down the fairway to hit hit next shot before my friend and I had a chance to hit our first shot.

Still not convinced. So if a player hits it short of the green and chips up to a back pin, and then has to go back to get his bag after he finishes this does not take longer than if he would have brought his bag to the back of the green before he putted?

Well if you leave your bag short of the green you would be walking one length of the green while chipping and putting, then another length of the green back to the bag and a third length of the green to get out of the way.
If you walk to the back of the green to place your bag before you hit you are walking a length of the green, followed by a second length of the green back to your ball, and then a third as you chip and putt up to the hole. The total amount of walking would be the same, it just appears that they are taking more time because the latter part of their time is spent getting out of the way instead of doing that before they hit.
