There are so many selfish and demanding seniors that I would quit in five minutes.


I have yet to meet an Ambassador on any of our golf courses here who wasn't helpful, very much on the job and every one of them knows golf well and are veteran golfers themselves. They are gentleman and ladies with very engaging personalities and groups I have been in have been reminded gently to speed it up. (I want everyone to know that slow play wasn't my fault)


Thank you Mulligan. Don't quit!!!!!! But I want to ask.... Are you allowed to eject people from the course? I never thought so...
Thank you for your kind words Gracie. We are trained to assess a slow play situation, and do what we can to speed up play. We are advised to step away from confrontation, and call a manager. The management will back us up 100% if we have taken the proscribed steps to resolve the situation. That may include ejection from the course, and suspension of the offender's ID number depending on the severity of the situation. Ambassadors who feel they have been abused are encouraged to report such to management.
