Golf partner drives me nuts, part 2

[SiberianDVM]

During the summer I made a post about not wanting to play with a friend anymore because he gets so angry.

Well, I played a round today with him again, first time in 4 months. Today he didn't get angry, but he drove me nuts with his constant talking. Yap, yap, yap, yap, yap. He never shut up. I swear, he talks more than a chick.

On a par 3 just as I was commencing my backswing, he yells out "What hole is this?" WTF? Who ****ing cares? I chuffed my shot.

My God, I just can't take it anymore. I had a par on the first hole, thought this was going to be my best round, and ended up shooting a 95. Crap!

If I play with him again, I'm taking a 6 pack and getting wasted.

Sounds like he's just clueless about how obtrusive he gets with yapping and chatting. But then, be a bit positive, you shot 95 with a partner adversely affecting your concentration.

Give him, "the needle".

What's the needle?

I was thinking about giving him my 5 iron up beside his head.

Yeah, I guess. I did beat him by 6 strokes. Then he had the nerve to tell me I have to give him 6 strokes next time!

I am bringing beer next time.

Just take one back everytime he opens his yap.

Ohh, we call it the pink ****tail.

He's kinda large; hiding the body would be difficult.

It's my own fault, letting the yapping get to me. I should be able to tune him out a la Hogan.

After my duffed shot, I wanted to play another and he pitched a big fit. Then a few holes later, he hit his tee shot into the rough. After he got to the green he discovered he had played the wrong ball! Softy that I am, I didn't assess him any penalty strokes.

sounds like not an avid golfer..there's a guy like that in our foursome..absolute disregard for just you common sense ettiquette too..

[EDSGolf]

Bring some duct tape to your next round with him and take it out next time he talks........he may get the point

[obagain]

Next time you play, as he starts his swing, throw a golf ball right at his teed ball. When he complains, tell him you didn't think it would bother him, after all, you love to talk during my backswing.
It might take 2-3 times of this before he shuts up, some guys can't help themselves.

And the problem with that would be what?
