Here is another golf etiquette that is routinely ignored.
Let’s say you tee off and the ball flies 200 yards up the middle of the fairway (unlikely). Golfers should drive in the rough and then turn perpendicular to where their ball lies. Many simply drive all the way up the middle of the fairway until they reach the green without traveling in the rough. Driving in the rough is appropriate in order to save the integrity of the fairway. I have mentioned this to people I have been paired with but always falls on deaf ears. Many just don’t care.
