Ball gets thrown - what to do?

Remember the only double-eagle on a par-4 recorded in PGA history?

The biggest problem here is that they are women. IMO, women get hit into a lot and they probably have a huge chip on their shoulder about it. Their response doesn't surprise me at all.

Next time when women are the group in front of you just be extra cautious.

Why were you putting 60' for par if you drove the green?

c'mon trev,

If I were in front of you, I'd either pocket it, 9-iron it into the woods, or tee it up and send it back.

I suspect 4 linebackers putting out would never see a ball rolling up.
Yet we take chances in cases like this...

Something to think about.

bk,

He '3' putted from 60' for par.

OP, why not let the shorter hitters in your group hit first?

The problem is ladies on the golf course. Seriously I have never seen a lady over 25 on a golf course that could play even semi-competently. Some collective attributes of female golfers include 'slow on long shots, short hitting, slow around the green, deliberate, slow to walk down the fairway with their goofy-ass looking golf cart, has never broken 100, etc'.

Even worse than women are [censored] who white-knight for lousy women golfers. I was playing the 9th hole at a local course last Friday, and I yanked my drive left, onto the adjoining course's 10th hole (they are part of the same 'resort'). My ball stops about 4 yards in front of the ladies tees on the 10th and I have about 50 yards in, which is nice. I'm about 100 yards from my ball when a golf cart stops at the ladies tees and a lady gets out and tees up her ball. She has a pink ball and a bad swing and I have no shelter, so I continue walking towards her because there are some trees to the left of the cart path which should provide some shelter if her drive comes towards me. I get to the trees before her swing and duck behind them. She hits a lousy drive and I walk up to my ball, where her playing partner, some guy 15 years older than her (her dad? creepy-ass boyfriend? it is a mystery), starts lecturing me on how I shouldn't be walking while she was hitting (I'd already moved behind the tree by the time her swing started). He obviously wanted me to apologize or something and was pretty pissed when I told him 'whatever' and went about lining up my lob wedge. I don't have time for some [censored] trying to make me reponsible for his daughter/escort's/girlfriend's [censored] drive when I have a decent score going.

I deserved that.

If I was on that green I woulda stepped on your ball, pinning it nearly flat with the green.

Wtf, seriously, you'd damage the green out of spite?
