Things that annoy you about your fellow golfers

Yes to picking up my ball and not raking the bunkers. The next time I'm waiting on a par 3 and the group in front of me doesn't rake the bunker I'm going to run up to them and wack them with my 7iron.

ARE YOU GUYS OUT THERE TO GOLF OR JUST LOOKING TO KILL SOMEONE??

A previous poster talked about hissy-fit-stunting with a power cart as a result of following an inconsiderate slow group.
He later hit shots over their heads. WTF??
One mis-hit and...what??...manslaughter???

No one has to die - it's freakin golf...

LOL, settle down Beavis. I was that guy.

Whether you choose to believe me or not, the factors of that circumstance rendered it basically impossible that I would hit them. Mostly the fact that we were on an elevated tee, I am a good golfer, and there's no trajectory I could have hit from that spot that would have hit them. They'd be just as likely to get hit by an asteroid.

You know what, this is one of the situations where someone does something rude, and then someone else can't stand it anymore and then THEY get branded the a-hole because they had the nerve to do something about it. Those dicks were doing something they had to know was rude (this garnered from the seriousness of their round and the ability I perceived while I watched them hole after hole) and still didn't care. Eff them. Eff 'em. I'm glad that I pissed them off.

I've never before nor since gotten into a serious confrontation on a golf course and hope never to again, but I refuse to shoulder the blame for their lack of etiquette.

I hate hate hate when people hit their approach shots as you are walking off the green. Hey, [censored], you aren't Tiger Woods. I understand I'm 25 yards from where you are aiming. I don't liek my chances. I'm not adding my score on the green, I"m not dilly dallying, I'm not writing my score in the cart, so wait 20 seconds rather than spraying your stupid TopFlite at me. K thx.

I hate when you and two coworkers take the day off work to go play golf, then when you're sitting in the clubhouse enjoying a few beers, the one friend sits there on his cell phone talking to the office for 20 minutes like a douchebag, completely killing the hookie-golf buzz. Hypothetically.

I hate it when a ranger/marshall decides he doesn't want to wait for you to hit the ball as he comes speeding by, then slams on the breaks of the cart right as you are about to make contact with the ball.

I was once stuck behind a fousome like this. Every hole we would be standing on the tee forever then standing in the fairway forever. There was nobody in front of them so as soon as they got to the tee they would tee off and we could never ask them to play through.

There was a group behind us who did not see them in front of us. So they started to get ticked and hitting into our group. I'm standing at my ball and the guy I'm playing with is standing at his ball. All of a sudden a ball takes one hop and hits me right in the calf. I turn pick up the ball and whip it as far as I can into the woods. The guy pulls up next to us and cockily says, "Oh did that ball roll into yo..." notices the other group teeing off and just breaks into a huge apology. I point out I think his ball ended up in the woods. The whole group cracks up.

Jesus Christ, some of you all can be douchebags. I'm a terrible terrible golfer (but not slow). However, remember at one point, you [censored] sucked, too. I might be on my 7th shot and still 150 away, but you want me to GIVE UP on a hole that I paid for? Remember, golf is fun, golf is fun, golf is fun, golf is fun. RELAX.

from today's round-
i hate when people wear gloves while putting...it's worse when they wear one on each hand the entire round. also like has been said before, i cant stand when ppl who are god awful take 5 pactice swings for every single swing, each practice swing worse than the previous one
