The final straw was when a ball bounced off the top of the net and rolled their way. The mouths on those females (I did not ask but they appeared to be). On the way back I made a wrong turn somewhere near cane gardens (?). I ended up by a golf course. The elderly men must have heard the foul female language and taken it as a challenge. When we found our way back to the house I made some improper comment "Worlds friendliest hometown my a$$. Go..." What was this post about?
I think those ladies are still around, and I played next to them. I've not experienced what you have on the golf course. Just the opposite. Great people, just out to have a nice time whacking a ball and hanging out.
