Doesn't sound like a ball hawk but rather someone not playing at the time. I have nothing against looking for your own ball and if there is another nearby.... bonus. We do have some here that think it's their mission to hawk every ball they see. We were behind a slow group on Southern Star Thursday and on the ninth hole the slowest player of the group went looking for his tee shot in the pond. after a couple of minutes he walked up to the green and dropped four balls to dry off. Also if your skills are as rusty as mine please don't play the back tees!
