all in the name of client entertainment? But it's the golf course etiquette that drives me nuts.
1. You can't drive the golf cart on the tee box (found that out from personal experience).
2. You're expected to neatly rake the sand to perfection, should you ever have to walk in the sand trap and <gasp!>
leave footprints.
3. When your ball hits the green, you're supposed to use a funny-looking tool to poke around the miniscule indentation
left from the ball striking the ground.
4. People get irritated if you talk while they're swinging.
5. People get irritated if you accidently drive your ball into the women's tee box marker and it ricochets straight back
and knocks the beer out of their hand (more personal experience).
6. Many golf courses are built parallel to major interstate highways, as if everyone's gonna be a friggin' pro golfer and
hit the ball straight. Geez, car windows are expensive.
7. Teenage drink cart girls are never impressed when you brag about the titanium in your shaft.
8. People actually spend time lining up their shot, as if the ball's really going to go that direction anyway.
9. There are players who actually care how many yards they are from the hole. Grab a d*mn club and swing, already!!
10. This one is for real...I was on the green, standing well behind the guy putting, minding my own business, and all of a
sudden everyone stops what they're doing and they're all staring at me. So I'm thinking, maybe they want my advice
as to how the guy should approach his shot. Then a half-second passes and I realize how ridiculous that just sounded.
So finally I give up and ask what everyone's problem is. Answer: "You're casting a shadow between the ball and the
hole."
I rest my case.

Bush!"
