Loud music or any consistent loud sound such as cheering would not bother me. It's the sudden shout or releasing of a cart brake that get to me.

Back in one of the Ryder Cups, one of the players encourages the crowd to keep cheering while he hit his shot. It wasn't a problem for him and shouldn't be a problem for anyone.

As long as he sound is fairly consistent.

If you play Hilltop, you will hear the music coming from the country club on the first tee, second green and third tee. It's simply part of the background.

While I agree that a golf course, especially early in the morning, is no place for loud music, it wouldn't bother any one swing as long as it it didn't start of stop in the middle of my swing.
