Don't blame it on the snowbirds, they are all pretty much gone. I can only fix so many before I start backing people up. Sometimes I just want to say "f*** it" and leave them, but then, I would become one of you. Come on, guys, if you cannot practice good golf etiquette and leave the greens repaired for others to enjoy, quit the game and go bowling, play cards, read a book or do something that doesn't require any common sense.

If they quit golf they would not know how to deal with the dings in the lanes they create with their sky high lofts. I'd suggest they would be more useful helping dig trenches in the new Villages of Pine Ridge.
