Default Why are you bothering to play golf

Sounds like you have no interest in the game of golf. If just your group there's no issue as long as you do not hold up play for others, rake bunkers, repair ball marks and fix divots. If you're not going to respect the game or the course why play golf? Even a single outsider joining your group deserves the courtesy of your at least respecting his game and his right to enjoy the game in the manner prescribed by golf etiquette and the rules of golf.
