Wait for it... wait for it... The look on the guy's face when he looks at his shaft.

Does that stall look narrow, more than average? That's tight if you ask me.

Yep, I'm always conscious of that.  It hasn't happened to me yet though.  That guy needs to swing more upright anyway, consider it a lesson!

Other thing I noticed was that guy out of the picture is taking his third shot (or appears to be) in a fifteen second time frame. Guess he's in a hurry to hit all those balls.

Yikes!  I worry about hitting the poles, I'm glad I don't have to worry about people in the stall next to me.

Or... wait.  I'm right handed, if the person in the stall behind me is left handed, this could happen to me?

<sigh>....the stories I could tell...

This is why I always try to get the furthest to the right stall.

On a positive note: I don't have to look at plumber crack: I have quickly gotten over the feeling of people watching me: I get to say hi to way more people.

I notice you said the correct side and were (probably) careful not to say anything about standing on the right side of the ball... which our left-handed friends do regularly.

Golf balls don't have sides :-P

If that's true how do so many golfers hit them sideways?
