What I don't get is who goes to a golf tournament to get rowdy? Akin to doing the wave at church. I imagine these dolts high fiving all the way to the parking lot reliving their screaming conquests as they get into their truck with rubber balls hanging under it.

Kick them out.  "In-the-hole!!" guy is a moron.  It's not clever, it's not entertaining, and having to listen to that idiocy ruins the broadcast. It's the ultimate "look at me" moment. Why not

These idiots that yell are probably so pleased with their accomplishments of getting their voice heard by millions of TV viewers. They probably get on their phone ant text their friends, "hey did you

I don't mind it as long as they wait an ample time after the ball is hit. Anyone that makes a peep before contact is made should be escorted out immediately. I voted for #4 though.

With as DAMNED SERIOUS as they are about people who pull out a 100% silent phone to check a text message (happened to me, can you tell?) .. One would think people would be kicked out for this stuff. Granted, in my case, I unserstand that there was no way for them to know that I had zero intention or capability to take a picture or distract a golfer in any way with my silent phone. So I understand. But I think the same amount of firmness and enforcement could and should be given to the shouters. While I can see how it's funny conceptually, particularly AFTER a shot, I think it's too close to causing a player real problems/costing someone a win. It can't be let to get to that point, IMO.

Now that would get people back in the pews!

How about this?  We get this guy on the course.

This trend has gotten way out of hand.  It really has become annoying.  It is like going to a concert and some ass beside you thinks everyone came to see him dance really big and scream the lyrics right beside you.  I didn't come here to see you - I came to see the band.

They should be tossed.

And to those who think it was funny the first time someone shouted mashed potatoes really loud and so totally random - I get it.  I don't really share it with you as a source of joy, but I can see a chuckle.  But like most jokes, it was only good the first time.  And all of the other words might as well be mashed potatoes - it doesn't get funnier to say chewbacca.  Doing the same thing over and over is not good.  Just sad.

If you still think this is funny - you are an idiot.

The Masters has it right and I wish that the Tour would follow.  The people who yell inane things after (or during) the golf swing are just attention seeking losers who think that they are being funny but instead are simply showing that they're adult in age and juvenile in intelligence.  People, it's just not funny, no matter whether you say Bababooey, Swedish Fish, Mashed Potatoes or anything else.  The people who yell are just a group of tiresome clowns who should have their passes taken away for the remainder of the tournament.  Most people, including me, will go to a tournament to enjoy the golf along with others of the same ilk, not be bothered by people who want to use the tournament as their own personal "look at me!" event.  Do us all a favor and go home and yell at your TV but stop making those of us who are there for the golf be subjected to your idiocy.

Really makes you miss the quiet guys with the rainbow wigs and simple cardboard signs.

      My Favorite Putts

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      Once, on a course in Middleton, Massachusetts that I used to love but has since closed down,  I hit the wrong half of a huge, UK style double green.  Then I made the hundred foot putt.  Tough to  forget that one.

      Are you a Better Golfer than a Year Ago?

      By trombettista_vecchio ·

      No. But if I can still play next year, I'll almost certainly be even worse. That's the reality of not being young.🙁

      Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DaveP043 ·

      I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
