I've seen these posts before & always thought restraint was the way to go. Ok - I had one of those Guys.
I went out single this AM, the course threw me into a twosome. That's usually OK but today...
On the first hole, I noticed one of the guys had a hat from Harvard Law School & reverse prejudice set in, but he wasn't bad, it was his buddy. NEVER SHUT HIS MOUTH. I swear he's gonna wear out his jaws. He announced thay like to play fast & I think OK, this is good. Then on the third, he fires his drive into the water (lateral) Then says " that didn't happen", he walks back to the cart & gets another ball - didn't have one in his pocket, but wants to play fast. This is still the third hole & the jury's still out.
Twe holes later same thing - this didn't happen, walks back gets ball & fires second one into the water, he throws his driver & walks back to the cart, gets a third ball, retrieves his driver & hits again. [The jury's in, this guys a jerk]
About 7, Harvard has a bad hole, & calls out "snowman" Jerk, questions him "You gonna count that penalty?" This feces goes on the whole round!
About 16, I've got a makeable 10 foot birdie putt (this is rare & I'm mentally doing my happy dance & trying to focus). Jerk putts across & has a 5 foot comeback, He's right in my line, so he stomps across the green right down in my line, sets up in front of me, & jacks his putt past the hole. He then stomps back down my line & picks up, then announced "I'll take that for a bogey" - gotta be +3. Right now my tongue is bleeding from biting it, I look up at Harvard & he rolls his eyes. I don't know if Harvard realizes that he just saved his buddies life, but I laughed rather that shoving Scotty up the jerks ASS! I missed the putt!
I've not been playing long, but this guy is the worst golf partner I've ever seen. I've never before (& hope never again) watched someone fat a wedge shot or miss a putt & was pleased.
