Groups coming up behind me start leaving the course. I now see a general attitude of let's horseplay and don't worry that the ones behind us won't finish tonight. I have had a few experienced golfers help me here in the villages and yet I've also seen snobbery exhibited among others and that only hurts the game in my opinion.
Good post and after reading all these comments I am wondering how they could ever say this is the friendliest town.
