I have a concern that not a sufficient number of golfers repair their divots. I have a concern regarding the number of players that are unfamiliar with golf etiquette and I have a concern with the pace of play. but never in my short golf life had I a concern about broken tees being cleaned up on a regular schedule

I must admit in all my years chasing the little white ball I have never picked up a broken tee like it is litter. Does any golfer really do that? I only responded at all because I wondered the same thing Russ posted when I started playing here.

I do understand why courses do this (i guess...), but I also think they could find a way to leave a few off to the side by the sandbox or tee marker as many courses do.

I quoted two posts because they match exactly how I think on this subject. There may be more....
