    Not much bothers me at all except for the clowns who don't play ready golf. Foursome with 2 carts in front of you & they all have to drive to each others ball...usually somewhere in the rough...& they all wait while each one hits, then drive to the next ball...sometimes the balls are only 10' apart but they will still drive over to it. Makes for a real enjoyable 6 hr rd.

  4. Something I can control would be missing a short putt. That just infuriates me.

    Something I cant control. A 20 hdcp taking five minutes reading the green before his putt for double.

    I can handle other people's problems, since I've learned that I can't control them, and can only control my own reactions.

    What get's me mad is my own ineptitude around the green. I practice chips and short pitches, and hit the ball great. On the course I'm truly retarded. Ruins my scores and drives me absolutely insane.

  6. I ignore the other golfers but my screwups on chips really rile me. And also, I hit a long, big, straight drive down the middle and botch the next shot and waste it. Not always bad though since it wakes me up and I'll usually play better.

  7. I too will split this into things I can control and things that I can not...

    can: Nothing gets me more upset than making a good course management type decision and then not executing. :real angry:

    can not: Lyle's 20 capper who, just after slicing his second tee shot OB, tee up #3 while the entire course is backed up behind him. Grant it, this should be better self-policed by other groups on the course but I still see it entirely too often and one of my favorite courses in the area. :(

  8. 1. We're usually the 1st group off on Saturdays and Sundays. Invariably, someone sneaks out on the back nine about the time we're making the turn. We get the first tee time because we play fast. When you run into a slowsome that is hacking it around and won't let you play through on the back... Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!
    2. Cell phone use on the course. If you have it on vibrate and return calls at the turn... okay. If it rings in my backswing, it'll probably go in the closest lake. If you talk on it during play, we'll just go on without you and the group behind can put up with your "importance".
    Blessed to have a bag full of trustworthy friends who have provided this old man with hundreds of hours enjoying the great game of golf.

    Our 13th hole. Had a nightmare from the tee earlier this season. Now I can actually hit a decent tee shot using my rescue#2 (most of the time) I've started hitting the worse approach shots ever!!! The fairway slopes alot from left to right so the ball is always sat way below my feet which leads me to either slice one or really pull the arse off it the other way. Gets me so ANGRY!!!

    The one I detest is when you spend a good bit of time finding the exact line on a putt, stand off it, then over it and change my mind when over the ball thinking that it will break slightly less, only to soon find out that if I would have stayed with original thoughts I would have sank it.

    OR

    Doing a very similar thing but then changing your mind mid-stroke and decelerating on it so's to take the break as your have thought that it will take less break, therefore having to hit the ball slightly less firm. Really annoys the hell out of me and is something I am going to have to eradicate fully from my game.
    "Golf takes us away from our everyday worries. It allows us to lose ourselves in the beauty of our natural surroundings. And it provides a serene setting for enjoying the camaraderie of our fellow players.
    No matter how good we get at it, golf always makes us strive to do better. In golf, as in life, there is no perfection, but we can always seek it. Golf constantly challenges us to aim farther, try harder, and be more than we are today. And really, what game could be better than that...?"

  11. Standing directly behind me in a backswing, even if its 15 feet behind me. Talking at all in my backswing. Moving a cart in my backswing, any noise at all in my swing drives me crazy.

    First runner ups.....Not fixing ball marks, stepping in my putting line, not paying directly after youve lost a skins game.

    Honorable mention.. Fat cart girls

    The biggest thing is blowing a great drive with a crappy 2nd shot. Probably nothing worse.

    1. unrepaired ball marks. this drives me insane.

    2. people fixing ball marks incorrectly. the guys on Fore Inventors Only with the repair tool attached to the putter? their tool did it completely wrong, and no one called them on it. i cringed every time they demonstrated how to use it.

    3. i'm a laid-back guy, and definitely not a pace nazi, but i played in a scramble last week that took 5:45. i was going out of my mind by the end of the round. there was a group in front of us that shot 127 in 2-man format. :o

    4. trash on the course.


    Sorry, couldn't narrow it down to just one, but those are roughly in order of amount of aggravation.

  14. Wow. This is a great question. I totally agree with most of what everyone has to say. I too split it up into thing I can control, and things I can't.

    Can:
    1)Trying to hit a shot I've never done before during a tournament when its not necessary.
    2) Playing it safe, and ending up in more trouble

    Can't:
    1) Unfixed ball marks
    2) Sunflower seed shells all over the green.
    3) Foursomes that don't let me play through when I'm alone.
    4) Clubs that insist on making me ride to help pace of play when we all know that in most cases it actually slows play. Its about the $$$, admit it.

  15. so overall would you guys say that its stuff u can or cant control that anoys u more
    for me its stuff that i can controll like puts n chips cos there is no excuse for a bad chip
