Now here's a new type of carnage I haven't seen before. While golfers were playing a hole, some idiot was walking his dog on the fairway. I won't mention what the dog was doing, nor what the owner wasn't doing , because it will just lead to another dog poop thread.

A very slow round of 5 1/2 hours+ in a cold breeze? No thanks
Once was enough

Looks like Orange Blossom has been spared the carnage that I never see each year. So far today not one golfer has gone by on the back nine.

The winter rates are almost the same as last year...they just seem like more because they kept the SUMMER rates until now. We didn't pay the transitional "fall" rates.

2:15 PM and the first group of golfers just went by. The carnage has begun. Observed golfer not replacing the snow rake properly back into the trap. Jingle balls jingle balls - oh what fun it is to watch the newbies play golf today.

Played Cherry Hill last Christmas and hit a ball in the left rough on #3. An ambassador was close by to make sure that I wasn't hitting from someone's property. He said that there are a lot of players on that day who weren't aware of the do's and don'ts.

Yeah, right. Can you honestly say that none of the 4,000+ people that have played on the "free day" in years past did no damage to the course? Didn't think so.

Driving through wet areas, driving too close and onto the greens, taking divots with practice shot after practice shot and not filling them in, putters being slammed onto the greens...... need I go on?
