He proceded to play several balls all the way to the green - of course holding us up on the #7 tee for over 10 minutes. C'mon folks get some golf courtesy, learn golf etiquette. Fortunately running into these knuckleheads on the courses seems to be the exception.
Unless I am given permission; once I jump ahead of a group, I do so with the understanding that the group I jumped ahead of will NEVER be held up by me even if I have to pick up.

As far as what happened at De La Vista, I can only say that person would be very aware of how I felt .
