Relieving yourself on the golf course.

[JGibson]

Another thread got me thinking.

Do women get offended if a man goes behind a tree or bush to relieve himself?

Most older men have enlarged prostate and with the heat, we need to drink lots of water and then relieve ourselves frequently. Medications work only so well.

Yes, I use the restroom before teeing off and never pass a restroom on the course without using it, doesn't matter if I have to go or not.

Nothing worst than trying to play golf when your bladder is busting.

If I’m playing with a group of men I just go behind a tree no questions asked but if a woman is in the group I feel like this is risky and she may make a big issue out of it.

I’m not talking about a possible family golf environment but an adult golf environment.

Also, what is the TV/developer policy on relieving oneself on their golf course?

I’ve never seen a rule stating it's prohibited, maybe legally it could be urinating in public or indecent exposure but that is my concern with women that they may be offended and actually call the Sheriff.

Who knows maybe even a man would make a big issue and call the authorities.


No diaper or a bag answers will be accepted as it’s rare and doesn't happen that often but when it does I gotta go.

I lived on a golf course in a country club community for 13 years and there were men that would just stand out there and relieve themselves while waiting to tee off with homes surrounding the tees. Once I had my grandchildren out on our deck and it happened so I called the police and met them after the 9th green, he got mouthy with them and he left in their car. I then went in to talk with the pro and told him I as well as my neighbors will call each time we see this happening. It never happened again after that day. That is one of the reasons I would never live on a golf course again, lots of sickos out there, plus the vulgarity, noise, and lack of privacy. My deck was not on a trail, it was on a pro tee box but still way to much going on for my liking.

Well, relieving yourself on a tee box is absurd. Let’s keep this in perspective and keep it to someone trying to be discreet about it behind a tree out of plain sight of homes.

Well. What is the rule now for how many minutes you have to to look for a lost ball? 😃

[Gpsma]

Im not a golfer. With that said, before i retired and moved here, i visited my brother who lived here for a number of years. First time here, we are driving around and im looking at all the golf carts. I said to him, there must be many cases of incontince here, I see the golf carts all have these white plastic urinals on them.
Needless to say he explained what they are for.

But i often think…they could be used for that.

[UpNorth]

Unfortunately, not enough trees on the golf courses here. The developer stripped most of them away. Boring, flat layouts with plenty of golf view premium lots. A guy can't find a decent tree these days.

[Taltarzac725]

I know there is a small bathroom just off Belmont's 3rd hole.

I sometimes see couples sneaking into it for sex so a lot does happen on golf courses.

If both are in there at the same time I assume something else is going on in there.

[Toymeister]

As the first golf front owner posting, I think that I speak for all:

I don't want to look out my window to see you pis*ing.

Agree, anyone doing it "in the open" is not the norm. In TV there are very few places where a person would be close enough to SEE something and even then they might need binoculars.

If a tree is peed on in the forest....

[Rainger99]

Every executive course that I have been on has a bathroom at the start, and another one around the 5th hole. The championship courses have one on the start, the front nine and the back nine.

[MsPCGenius]

Public indecency is public indecency. Keep your ***** in your pants...

Surprisingly, there are a number of Championship courses which do not have facilities at the starter shacks. Very surprised since this is a senior joint.

That is surprising. I should have qualified it by saying at the championship courses that I have played.

If there isn’t a bathroom at the starter shack, isn’t there a clubhouse with a bathroom?

Oh, add Cane Garden to the list also.

Drink cart girls always plied my foursome with beer. You don't buy beer, you rent it. No golf course went unwatered.

Like many other topics we "chat" about on here, when two or more separate issues are discussed simultaneously, it gets difficult to follow. There are legitimate, contrasting, differences between those who prefer to live on a golf course and those who would never consider it. However, on the topic of public indecency laws, it should not matter if an individual lives on a golf course, by a walking trail, ball diamond, or tennis count, they fact that a male, or a female, has an incontinence condition should not result in the law being applied by qualitative consideration. Once a society starts down that path, equality of justice takes another blow. If one is excused from public indecency laws (urinating in public) because they are on a public or private golf course, should a tennis player or softball player in a public park then be excused from the law by stepping behind a tree, or even equipment shed, in the park to urinate instead of walking to the restroom facilities ? So, no, in a civilized society we do not accept a variety of excuses for public urination, it's gross, actually destructive to the fiber of a society (even though some would consider it no different than spitting on the sidewalk), and rather done on the side of the road (which we have probably all witnessed) while "pretending" to examine an auto by putting the hood up, it's illegal because it is offensive. At the very least, citizens should have a right not to be exposed to such crude people, but we know some have no sense of decency and probably never will.

One thought is, are MEN NOT offended by public urination ? ? ? Some of this seems to make sense, while other parts of the same "question" do not. Referring to medication, each of us can only rely on our own experience and good taste if you will. But, on occasions where I have been told to take a medication that my physician said would cause frequent urination, I refrain from tennis and from golf, if I believe the spacing of restrooms does not meet my needs. This seems an odd topic, but every executive has a restroom after hole 4 or 5, never really counted on the championships. To me it's almost "silly" to discuss if public urination in our country is "offensive", or if our law makers long ago decided no matter which "sex" a civilized human being is, public urination, even in "adult" areas, is not accepted.

[npwalters]

No , not really unless it is done to attract attention.

If they are peeing on my yard, car or person--- YES. There was a dog a number of years ago that had a big desire to pee on certain tennis shoes. With people in them or not.

If you can do it in your golf cart discretely so no one can see - into your own urinal which like dog poo you take with you - well, ok.

There's not a golfer alive, who hasn't taken a whiz in the woods and that will continue forever.

Women are simply jealous, as it's not quite as convenient for them. Tough luck.

For the women who are feeling deprived of equal rights? You can wear shirts without collars, so you have that going for you.

Maybe the inventors of the Villages can come up with a seat cushion for a golf cart that doubles as a women's urinal but does not stink? That way the lady could just sit on it and go and put it in the back for emptying after.

Maybe there is already such a thing?

Kind of hard for women to find a suitably large tree on some Villages' golf courses. And men could use this too.

Actually, I don’t find discrete public urination “gross” or “crude” or “offensive,” tree or no tree. The same goes for public breast-feeding from an exposed breast. These are normal bodily functions, and it is a warped society that sees them as shameful. I recall the motto of the Order of the Garter in the UK: “Honi Soit Qui Mal y Pense” (which translates as “shame to him who thinks it evil,” or more clearly, “If no offense is intended, shame to him who thinks an act evil.”). That doesn’t mean I want it done against the wall of my house or on my lanai, but on a golf course in an emergency doesn’t bother me. I realize there are public decency laws, and I follow them, but some laws were made because of prudes who complain, not because of public health. Oddly, there is much better reason for not allowing public urination in cities (as with a ban on public spitting), yet cities are not generally required to have and maintain a lot of public facilities for this sort of thing. There have been several articles in the New York Times this year about the need for such things in New York.

Paris began installing ****oirs on the streets in 1830, and at one point there were over 1200 of them. These were generally partly open and male only. The feet and torso of the users were exposed. All but one has been replaced by unisex, fully-enclosed units rather like our porta-potties. In London these days you can find plastic portable units for four men, completely exposed from behind. I’ve attached a photo below.

We are not talking here about public exposure of the sex organs for the purpose of shocking people. That’s significantly different. If people are offended by the sight of someone urinating a hundred feet away, however, I would say they have their own problems they should deal with.

[toeser]

I lived on a golf course in a country club community for 13 years and there were men that would just stand out there and relieve themselves while waiting to tee off with homes surrounding the tees. Once I had my grandchildren out on our deck and it happened so I called the police and met them after the 9th green, he got mouthy with them and he left in their car. I then went in to talk with the pro and told him I as well as my neighbors will call each time we see this happening. It never happened again after that day. That is one of the reasons I would never live on a golf course again, lots of sickos out there, plus the vulgarity, noise, and lack of privacy. My deck was not on a trail, it was on a pro tee box but still way to much going on for my liking.

Wow. I have lived on a Villages golf course for eight years and have never witnessed nor heard ANY inappropriate behavior, not even cursing.

Try not drinking beer.

[SHIBUMI]

This has definitely turned into yellow journalism. There are plenty of bathrooms on the courses. Its probably not more than a 5 minute ride from any hole to get to a bathroom.
If you have an issue, you need to be responsible and learn where the stops are and be willing to stop your golf and go to a restroom. Yes women will be offended as they have to do the same thing, find a bathroom. Be considerate. If your that incontinent wear a diaper or stay home. I guess you should not use the pools either.
Pre-planning your stops is key. And being aware of water intake as well, one feeds the other. Golf takes our minds out of reality. Just be a little more considerate of others. It is a two stroke penalty for taking an action that adversely affects other players, if egregious also subject to disqualification.

Yes, I get offended. Use the restroom or, if you can’t wait, use a diaper. This is offensive behavior.

My neighbor pees on a bush in his front yard at night thinking no one can see him. I walk my dog at night and can see him outlined perfectly well by the lights in his garage. It’s disgusting behavior and I’ve told him so.

[Mumsie]

I yelled at a guy who pulled it out and was just about to pee on the tree behind where the local priest lives, just next door to me and in plain sight from my birdcage. “What the he** are you doing? There is a bathroom right over there!” as I pointed to the bathrooms between #6 and #8 on the course. He quickly zipped up, jumped on his cart and hightailed it over to dispose of his waste in a societal approved facility. You should have heard the hoots and hollers from his buddies—he’ll never live that down!

We wanted to poke our eyes out!

It is always the ones you DO NOT want to see, who have no issue walking around nude.

[Whitley]

Yes, I get offended. Use the restroom or, if you can’t wait, use a diaper. This is offensive behavior.

My neighbor pees on a bush in his front yard at night thinking no one can see him. I walk my dog at night and can see him outlined perfectly well by the lights in his garage. It’s disgusting behavior and I’ve told him so.

Your neighbor walks out of his home, with working bathroom(s) I presume, so he can **** on a bush. I think there may be more going on with this man(?) than a weak bladder.

[Whitley]

I yelled at a guy who pulled it out and was just about to pee on the tree behind where the local priest lives, just next door to me and in plain sight from my birdcage. “What the he** are you doing? There is a bathroom right over there!” as I pointed to the bathrooms between #6 and #8 on the course. He quickly zipped up, jumped on his cart and hightailed it over to dispose of his waste in a societal approved facility. You should have heard the hoots and hollers from his buddies—he’ll never live that down!

It reminds me of a young child who does not want to take the time to use a bathroom thinking they may miss out on something (a joke, an attractive person, seeing dave shove 5 golf balls in his mouth, again). WTH is the deal with Dave.

[bruce213]

As retirees a lot of of complain about youngsters, but if you need a sign to tell you directly not to pee in public maybe that's a problem.

[Steve]

Is this really what this site has come down to?

I think it's important to know what kind of kooks we're dealing with out there. Yesterday I stopped to get my mail at the postal station at Southern Trace and Oak Forest. As I pulled in I saw a guy hop out of his golf cart, go to the end of the station where the mail truck unloads every day, drop his fly and take a whiz right there. When he finished he went to the other side of the building since he knew I was there and he waited. I wanted to tell him there is a rec center across the street with restrooms inside and out by the pool. But he stayed hidden on the other side until he heard my van start up. As I drove away I saw him come out from his hiding spot. So he knew what he did was wrong, but did it anyway. It takes all kinds. Unfortunately we have to deal with all of them at one time or another.

[Marine1974]

Well. What is the rule now for how many minutes you have to to look for a lost ball? 😃
Better question how long does it take if , you don’t hit a provisional ball , if you think your ball went out of bounds and then go search and have return to the tee box to take stroke and distance?

[Taltarzac725]

Interesting idea and wonder what that would cost? We bought a new cart last yr with an upgraded seat for extra $1700 so my wife could reach the pedals when she drove. Very comfortable btw

I was thinking of something like a cross between a hot water bottle CVS Health Warm or Cold Water Bottle (https://www.cvs.com/shop/cvs-health-warm-or-cold-water-bottle-prodid-313072?skuId=313072&cgaa=QWxsb3dHb29nbGVUb0FjY2Vzc0NWU1BhZ2Vz&cid=ps_pmg_pla&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIoL3j5M_H_gIVAxJlCh0YUwt5EAQYAyAB EgJTk_D_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds) and an elevated toilet seat with an below and above total eclipse like valve for where the pee would enter. Probably made of some kind hot water bottle kind of material.

I know there are a lot of tinkerers in the Villages with a lot of extra time.

[DARFAP]

Was stationed in Okinawa. Played at Kadena AB and one time had a female DoD teacher join us. She pulled her pants down and peed behind her cart (trying to be out of view), then again by a tree, saying "okay, don't watch." Haven't seen any ladies do that here...

Another thread got me thinking.

Do women get offended if a man goes behind a tree or bush to relieve himself?

Most older men have enlarged prostate and with the heat, we need to drink lots of water and then relieve ourselves frequently. Medications work only so well.

Yes, I use the restroom before teeing off and never pass a restroom on the course without using it, doesn't matter if I have to go or not.

Nothing worst than trying to play golf when your bladder is busting.

If I’m playing with a group of men I just go behind a tree no questions asked but if a woman is in the group I feel like this is risky and she may make a big issue out of it.

I’m not talking about a possible family golf environment but an adult golf environment.

Also, what is the TV/developer policy on relieving oneself on their golf course?

I’ve never seen a rule stating it's prohibited, maybe legally it could be urinating in public or indecent exposure but that is my concern with women that they may be offended and actually call the Sheriff.

Who knows maybe even a man would make a big issue and call the authorities.


No diaper or a bag answers will be accepted as it’s rare and doesn't happen that often but when it does I gotta go.

So, you're looking for justification to pee in public? Says a lot about your upbringing.

[kcrazorbackfan]

Unfortunately, not enough trees on the golf courses here. The developer stripped most of them away. Boring, flat layouts with plenty of golf view premium lots. A guy can't find a decent tree these days.

Ho hum 🥱; just another bashing of the Developer who created all of what we have, even for people like you.

[Hank’s mom]

Most men that I have seen peeing from a distance are not being vulgar or indecent. I sure hope your grandchildren never do anything as bad as pee on grass a far distance as you observed. Reflect on your life and realize how stupid this post was!

[BrianL99]

And how do you WASH YOUR HANDS!?!

Just to add some levity to a ridiculous thread.

True story.

A prior Massachusetts Governor (Bill Weld, Harvard) was on a junket to Dublin, along with (at the time) Speaker of the House Tom Flaherty (Boston College).

Heading from one Pub to the other, Tom was little miffed as he was waiting for Weld to come out of the Men's Room. Tom said, "what the hell took you so long?". Bill replied, "I had to wash my hands, didn't they teach you to do that at BC"?

Flaherty says: "At BC, they taught us not to get it on our hands".

[NJRICHARD]

This is an adult community and exceptions must be made. Calling the police, IMO, is excessive.

[Taltarzac725]

You could always carry a bedpan in a discreet bag in the back of your golf cart and have some kind of excuse to close your cart doors or put down the covers.

[JMintzer]

Think about this the next time your ball is up against a tree. Think about this the next time you stop for a bite after your round and neglect to wash your hands.

I'd adjust my stance. The bark on the tree is too rough for my balls...

[JMintzer]

Wow. I have lived on a Villages golf course for eight years and have never witnessed nor heard ANY inappropriate behavior, not even cursing.

I must not have played that course yet... :p;):laugh:

[JMintzer]

You could always carry a bedpan in a discreet bag in the back of your golf cart and have some kind of excuse to close your cart doors or put down the covers.

[jimjamuser]

I know there is a small bathroom just off Belmont's 3rd hole.

I sometimes see couples sneaking into it for sex so a lot does happen on golf courses.

If both are in there at the same time I assume something else is going on in there.
As discussed on late-night TV a while back........I bet that makes his putter.........flutter.

It’s OK to take a leak on the golf course as long as you identify as a squirrel : )
Oh look, there is one of those cute high school "Furbies" taking a leak. So SWEET!

[Taltarzac725]

And then, what do you do with the bedpan?

Have it full of cat litter.

[jimjamuser]

If they are peeing on my yard, car or person--- YES. There was a dog a number of years ago that had a big desire to pee on certain tennis shoes. With people in them or not.
I remember that dog.......he hated Air Jordans.

[jimjamuser]

All creatures have to evacuate their waste. But knowing this, I have never, as in Never with a capital "N", thought the waste discharge of any creature (that includes widdo Snarkums) as being in any way worthy of public display.
Get the shudders just thinking about it.
Imagine ALL the streets of urban USA BEFORE the car was invented. And we complain about SMELLY exhaust.

[Taltarzac725]

I remember that dog.......he hated Air Jordans.

Actually it just seemed to be the shoes of one lady who often had some kind of misadventure going on. We often called on her for another good story of these perils. She escaped from a nursing home in Maryland only wearing a smock and had to be rounded up by staff according to her daughter.

[jimjamuser]

There's not a golfer alive, who hasn't taken a whiz in the woods and that will continue forever.

Women are simply jealous, as it's not quite as convenient for them. Tough luck.

For the women who are feeling deprived of equal rights? You can wear shirts without collars, so you have that going for you.
Actually, there is a small plastic device for female hikers that allows them to stand up and still do the male way.

Flaherty says: "At BC, they taught us not to get it on our hands".

The joke, while old, is only mildly funny, imho. The fact that it is not only the urine to consider, but the handling of the genitals as well, seems so obviously connected that, in this version, Flaherty shows himself to be a fool and a smart azz. But, as a politician, it is to be expected.

[jimjamuser]

Actually, I don’t find discrete public urination “gross” or “crude” or “offensive,” tree or no tree. The same goes for public breast-feeding from an exposed breast. These are normal bodily functions, and it is a warped society that sees them as shameful. I recall the motto of the Order of the Garter in the UK: “Honi Soit Qui Mal y Pense” (which translates as “shame to him who thinks it evil,” or more clearly, “If no offense is intended, shame to him who thinks an act evil.”). That doesn’t mean I want it done against the wall of my house or on my lanai, but on a golf course in an emergency doesn’t bother me. I realize there are public decency laws, and I follow them, but some laws were made because of prudes who complain, not because of public health. Oddly, there is much better reason for not allowing public urination in cities (as with a ban on public spitting), yet cities are not generally required to have and maintain a lot of public facilities for this sort of thing. There have been several articles in the New York Times this year about the need for such things in New York.

Paris began installing ****oirs on the streets in 1830, and at one point there were over 1200 of them. These were generally partly open and male only. The feet and torso of the users were exposed. All but one has been replaced by unisex, fully-enclosed units rather like our porta-potties. In London these days you can find plastic portable units for four men, completely exposed from behind. I’ve attached a photo below.

We are not talking here about public exposure of the sex organs for the purpose of shocking people. That’s significantly different. If people are offended by the sight of someone urinating a hundred feet away, however, I would say they have their own problems they should deal with.
Very progressive.

“Indecent exposure is if an individual flashed another person on the street in a vulgar manner.
With indecent exposure, the manner in which the individual has exposed themselves is important. If an individual has not exposed themselves in a vulgar or indecent manner, they may be able to fight an indecent exposure charge”

I think like most crimes it's the “intent” that matters.
If no one can see it how is it indecency?

If a tree falls in the woods did it make a noise?

It could be public urination but there is a big difference between relieving yourself on the side of a Circle K wall and hiding behind a tree on a golf course where no one can see you or it.

It boggles my mind, that women are the first ones to defend their right to breast feed in public (as the should), but they're going to complain that a guy is urinating behind a tree, 500' away from them?

Anecdotal story. The 16th hole at Southern Hills Plantation in Brooksville, FL (a great course to play, only about an hour from TV) is a gorgeous, dogleg Par 5. The Tee Box is surrounded by a 50' "no cut buffer zone" of dense trees. A perfect place some late round relief.

A lawyer and his wife, bought the home closest to that Tee Box and apparently in the dead of night, cut down all the growth in the Buffer Zone, to provided themselves with a "view of the golf course" ... and of the 16th Tee Box. Apparently the wife isn't thrilled with her current view and nary a day goes by, she doesn't file a written complaint with the Club.

There are signs on every hole leading up to the 16th, to use the "facilities" on the 15th Tee ... which are locked, 24 hours a day. Members usually know the combination to use it, Guests are usually at a loss.

So according to this logic:

it doesn’t count that I blew through a stop sign, because I “intended” to stop, officer. And doesn’t the manner in which I went through it, it was really fast so I wouldn’t hit anyone, count? And no one saw it, does it matter then, only your red light camera caught it.

So, in your opinion, which of those excuses would result in me being let off a ticket?

[Taltarzac725]

Driving a 2000 to 5000 lb vehicle is quite different from peeing behind a tree on a golf course.

Among other things, it is amazing to me that otherwise considerate and entertaining individuals don’t mind grossing people out. One has to plan ahead for these situations. If you know you can’t hold it long enough for an event you are attending, don’t drink before hand, or get a diaper, and figure out what you can socially do IF you need to.

How about converting the divot hole repair seeder as a porta john. At the right height, no one has to know what the gentleman standing behind or to the side of the golf cart is doing. Can't help you with number 2's. You are SOL.

Brilliant!! Leave the sand in the bucket for deuces - like kitty litter!

Among other things, it is amazing to me that otherwise considerate and entertaining individuals don’t mind grossing people out. One has to plan ahead for these situations.

Yes... Don't drink water while playing golf...

Prepare the ambulances...

Sorry, but one size does not fit all.
For #2, sand traps work well. They even have a rake to cover the, evidence, when you finish

when you gotta go, you gotta go,

Yes. Straight to the nearest restroom, I sincerely hope.
I would hate to be the player that has their ball land in your urine and get splattered when trying to play the ball out of the wet grass.

So what about wildlife urine and waste?

You have a better chance of winning the Powerball or being eaten by an alligator than landing in the exact spot where someone just relieved themselves.

So overdramatic.

So overdramatic.

1. We are talking about humans. Not wildlife, space aliens, etc. The subject is humans choosing to relieve themselves in public for convenience when facilities are near at hand. Same as dropping you trash on the grass rather than taking it to the nearby trash receptacle. Plain laziness and lack of personal responsibility.

2. The odds may be small for me to win the PowerBar, but, it isn't just about me. It's about leaving your filth where it doesn't belong. Civilized behavior. The course designers were kind and thoughtful enough to build toilets, suggest we use them as intended.

3. "So overdramatic." ? Really? Not hardly. No bold type, italics, nothing but a few simple words to try and make my point.
