Just curious about travel direction on the executive paths. In general course of play you go from hole one to the next. Let's say in the event of rain your group and other groups decide, we be gone and leave the course turning back the opposite travel direction to leave. Does that cause a safety risk doing so especially while others teeing off may not be able to see you due to blind corners or trees? Would you do so? My group witnessed others do this Friday instead of travelling off the course quicker the right direction.

Not good going against the traffic.

Yes, these are one-way paths and while you may think the rain is a deluge, the group behind you may view it as a slight sprinkle and continue using the cart path in the correct direction.

We continued to play as the rain stopped and the sun returned immediately after the parade of carts raced by. We thought a tsunami was coming!

Played golf for several years (close to 50) and never saw any “crashes” on a golf cart path. Fore!

Sorry, much ado about nothing. Just use a little common sense.

If it were a choice between getting hit by lightning or a golf ball, I'd choose the golf ball.

I was never keen on holding a golf club (lightning rod) during an electrical storm. But some can sometimes make stupid choices for the sake of the game.

Maybe time to switch to graphite shafts?

Graphite is a good conductor of electricity because it has a unique structure where electrons can move freely within the carbon layers. This means that when a golf shaft made of graphite is exposed to a source of electricity, the electricity can flow through the shaft.

I think the poster knew that, it was likely a satirical jab. It’s basic thermodynamics. I recall lithium batteries actually have quite a bit of graphite in them because of the free valances and storage capabilities. Besides, not many irons out their have graphite heads.
