Which caused us to have to wait on every hole to tee off and it also distracted us, when we were on the tee box. All because this couple had to search every bush and body of water along the way to the next hole, for a ball. Ugh. I think ball hawkers should be penalized ( points) by golf ambassors.

Those who are visiting, seasonal or forgetful. Ball hawking is not okay at all. If there is no one immediately behind you and you wanna take an occassional look, please do so. When ball hawking causes delays and distractions, it is not okay!

This couple must not be aware of the snakes and gators, that live on Sweetgum, because they wouldn't have been rummaging through the weeds and bushes.

Frustrated with ball hawkers.
What's the matter with some people? Don't they know that's the AMBASSADOR'S job?

And by the way..... you are correct, I never saw "ball hawking" before 30 days ago.
