Who else sneaks on the golf courses? - Page 3

Wow what an idiot this guy is why people don't give younger golfers any respect.  I'm 21 and I hate people my age that act like this.  This makes me so mad.  How rude and disrespectful.  I would never do anything like that.  People like this is why I get glares on the course when my friends and I are more respectful than a lot of other golfers on the course.

I used to sneak onto my college course and set off fireworks at night and party and stuff.  Some kids have no sense of respect though, we always cleaned up after ourselves, but I found out that a couple of kids started a barn fire on one of the greens, and another one carved their names across the whole green.  The pro and his staff did an amazing job though working to cover it all up.

Here's the thing that raises red flags in my mind, FWIW.  Golf is the only game/sport I know of where the players police themselves - no refs, no umpires, no line judges.  It exposes all sorts of character issues on the course, some of the highest being honesty and integrity.  When someone cards a double and you clearly know it was much worse than that, how much respect do you have for their game, or even for them?  So in this case, when you basically say 'F the course cuz I don't feel like paying the (incorrect) asking price', how can anyone trust you're even playing the game the right way?  Are you lying about your handicap?  Do you fluff your lies?  Do you card a 6 when it was really an 8?  Do you enforce the proper penalties and execute your shots properly when encountering a hazard?  All those questions become 'in play' when you demonstrate a clear willingness to disregard not only the rules, but the law in order to get your desired outcome (even if it was just an isolated incident).  Why would anyone believe you wouldn't do the same out on the course?

FWIW, what you might have done (probably should have done) was pay the dickhead clerk his full fee and then complain articulately and politely to the course super when he was in - and ask for a refund of the difference.  Hell, you might've even gotten a free round if you approached him in the right manner.  What you could still do is take the proper green fee (the 22-and-under rate) to the course super, apologize for losing you cool, and offer it up to him.  Integrity is far more precious than a few bucks discount, IMHO.  It takes years to build and only seconds to tear it completely down.

Relax, all.   In a couple of days, he'll move on to another forum site and try to rile up the natives there.  It probably gets boring down in his mom's basement.

So what sort of a response did you expect?  You created your own image, the only image we could possibly have of you.  You come on here throwing a childish tantrum and expect mature, responsible people to respect you?  Get real! 

I'm 15 and even I think that this was immature and downright wrong. Earlier this year I payed to play 9 holes, but when I got to the 8th hole I jumped back onto the 2nd hole to try and play a few more holes before the sun went down, but when I got done I went straight into the clubhouse and payed for another 9 holes and explained myself to the manager. He said he didn't have a problem with it especially because I was kind enough to at least come pay and not just leave.

And for the OP:

If you really wish to play several rounds of golf for a cheap price I would suggest buying Tiger Woods 2012: The Masters, it has some great courses and you can play them all you want for free after you pay the initial $60

Well if this doesnt have "Im a mature normal 22 year old" written all over it I dont know what does .......

Well done.  Things look bright for you.

As for our "Ghetto Guy", he would probably steal the Tiger Woods video game, because the store clerk looked at him funny.

i havent attended a college class is almost 10 years but i still use my student ID to get the student discount.  F them...

Oooooooo.... tough guy!  You just scared the crap out of me.   

Hopefully Erik will see fit to just ban for the troll you are.

No doubt my parents raised me damn good too, but they also ttaught me to stand up for myself and do what i honestly think is right. this is a personal problem, but i've given the city, the government, the state, way too much money than they even deserve to see. now this conversation is getting to a point where its all about knowing the person. But it's whatever, i see you guys as just a lame golfer because you guys are too old or too weak to play any other sport, i probably am getting that image of me too. but i dont give a rats ass about any of you. i'm just fuckin bored talking shit and you guys bit on it. HARD too. i love it. because i know 90% of you will not do shit if you guys were confronted by another. i BET your ass. when you're raised in the hood...you TAKE something if you want it. the government needs people like me to keep the world moving. trust me on that one.   on the other hand... bitches love golfers that look damn good while golfing. LOL

 

 

 

Idk what kind of hood you were raised in, because if you play golf and pretend to be a badass and suggest girls like that... HA!  I was raised in the hood too, but I learned respect just as much as survival.  You keep taking what you want, n one day its gonna backfire.  AND I guarantee if you came onto my course and tried to sneak on, you wouldn't be walking away feeling like a champ.  You also must have very little schooling as you think the government need ppl like you who suggest they pay too much in taxes.  The day the ppl stop paying taxes is the day when our country becomes a third world country.  See how your "bitches" like it when you have no money. (Just as well, I love threads like this, good fun)

This is pure gold.

Check out the mirror, hot shot.  Why do I get the impression you're a 12 year old playing on your parent's computer in the suburbs?
