We had so much fun together
I was sure that you were mine
But leavin' you, baby, is drivin' me crazy
It's got me wonderin' all the time.

Dee: Before I proceed, I hope you are a girl because otherwise I'd get bit queasy with this conversation. I do love and care about people and always take an interest in them. As part of my job I counseled employees and based on performance evaluations, etc I was decent at it. So if we had a bad start let's let bygones be bygones..life is too short and I don't want enemies in heaven because then it won't be heaven.

Personal Best Regards:

How come I can't find any policies in writing about etiquette and local rules? Can somebody give me a link? With all the talk and advice on this site and all the golfing going on why is it that you need to go to golf school or ask a golf staff member to get answers?

Kind of Off Topic---but this is a pet peeve of mine.
Environmental Areas
I respect Environmental Areas and might use a retriever if I can see the ball but I never go in a restricted area like others I have seen. When I do bring up the subject that the penalty for going in a restricted area may be a fine over $200, golfers are shocked. I don't think that fine is posted and it should be. What is posted is that you may be asked to leave the course. That sounds like the worst that could happen is being sent to the principal's office, a slap on the wrist.

I have recently seen pamphlets at the starter shacks covering good golf practices. I don't know if all execs have them. Golfthevillages.com have it on their site.

This is from the Good Golf GuidePDF, that appears on the golfthevillages.com site.

Successful Start
Please arrive at the course in time for registration, 20 minutes prior to your scheduled tee time.

I'm going to read it. I suspect I did years ago but I don't remember as well as I use to either. What a wealth of information. Do the ambassadors carry these? I think if I had the job and someone was not following the guidelines that would be a good time to explain the role of an ambassador and hand-out the pamphlet.

ps I read through it and I didn't see anything about environmentally protected areas or possible fines. Did I not see that too even though it was in front of me?

I've read the warnings at the newer courses. The pamphlet is 5 years old maybe that's why.

I (10) like the execs for working on short game shots. I prefer to play the CC courses using different tees for each round.
