How do you handle teens hiding in bushes who blow horn when you are teeing off?

You are in the midst of your swing while teeing off and teens in a bush nearby blow horn during your swing, and screw you up.

How do you handle it?

I had a similar experience, not when we were teeing off but on the green!
A couple of friends and I were playing for $1 for each hole, and when I was about to make my stroke, this kid(I think..) screams in the bushes.
Every freakin stroke we make, he makes this noise in funny voice.
I was irritated at first, but as my friend missed his 4 footer and got pissed off, we all laughed it off.

This happened to a friend and I once too. Every time we were about to take a stroke some kids would whistle in the bushes to the right of us. There wasn't anyone else behind us so we just kept taking practise swings for about 3 or 4 minutes until they got bored and left.

I would strangle the fecker until he went blue, at which point I would ask his colleagues if they fancied having a piece of me.

If they did I would smash them with alternating irons i.e

Start with a wedge, 8 iron, 5 iron....... all the way up to my driver.

That way I have been to the range without hitting a ball

Well, that's what I was hoping for too.

I thought they'll leave if we didn't respond to them, but they were persistent. lol. We could still hear them making noises after we left. For the next two holes! haha They must have pissed off a lot of golfers that day. Oh well, we had a good laugh. After all, it's just a game, right? Dan

This seems like a solid way to handle it

Could call the club house and have them arrested for trespassing if a private course. If public maybe disturbing the peace.

Seems to call for the Colt .45 more than the rubbers. I think there would be lot of sudden rustling in the bushes if you went to the side pocket for a new pencil and had to take your handgun out in order to get at it.

just keep going like nothing happened, dont react to it at all.. What makes it fun for them is our reaction, no reaction = eventually get bored.

    • Day 9: 2026.01.11 Hit some balls at the range, concentrating on weight distribution at address, got some on film.
    • Day 468 - 2026-01-11 Loooooong day. Did some work in the patio door (as a mirror) when I got home.
    • I caught a video on this driver; the face tech seems crazy. Looking at the heat map for ball speed, hitting it basically anywhere on the face only loses a few percent ball speed. The surprising and counter intuitive part to me was that for flat faced clubs, ball speed loss is directly proportional to distance loss. For clubs with bulge and roll this is apparently not true. The surprising part of that story being that the max distance potential looks to be a tiny pee sized area for this driver, and I feel in general for drivers. The counter intuitive part being (the myth?) that blade irons have a pee sized sweet spot and missing that tiny spot causes dramatic losses. And that modern drivers, maybe 2017 on, have massive sweet spots and are ultra forgiving. Where in reality, if this heat map data is valid and reliable, it might be a bit of the opposite. This insane tech driver appears to have a pea sized "sweet spot" while Mizuno Pro 241 irons are 28% more forgiving compared to the average of all clubs measured. Not compared to other players irons, compared to all clubs from all categories, players to SGI! The Pro 241 being essentially just a solid chunk of metal with no "tech" at all. Which for me devolves into a whole mess of what is forgiveness really? And in measurable and quantifiable results how many yards, or feet, does that translate into?
