OK, I think I have a new one that has skyrocketed to #1 for me.
GODDAMN CART PATHS!!!!!!!
The local muni that I play on (decent shape, fairly cheap) feels the need to make a nonstop cart path around the entire course. The biggest problem with this is that in most spots it is <10 yards off the fairway. Today, I sliced a ball a little bit, ok, it should settle down into the rough.
Nope, BINK! Hits Cart path, bounces 30 feet in the air and out of bounds. I scuffed up 2 more Pro-Vs today and had one bounce off of the cart path into a ditch. I'm so fed up with it that I'm willing to pay much more to play at a decent course rather than play cart path lottery with every ball that misses the fairway.

More annoying when it happens during a tournament...

On the other hand, the farther the paths are from the fairway, the longer the round plays on a paths-only day (which is often during a rainy spring).
I agree that paths 10 ft from the fairway suck, but for every foot further away from the fairway they are, another few minutes you're on the course.
