What does the word "reasonable" mean in The Villages? I have played with and behind guys with it. I know there are people who need this, but OMG is it abused or what?

[gomoho]

What does that mean?

yes. it is abused. They are supposed to be 15 feet from Greens, Bunkers, Tee boxes etc. but NO they pull right up front, slowing play and then damaging access to the green with their carts. Most need the help, others just don't care

Overheard a lady asking starter for a temporary accommodation tag because she lent hers to a neighbor!

Damaging access to the green? I've seen some folks closer than they should be but can't recall seeing damage to the access to the green.

I saw a guy drive into the sand trap at Hawke's Bay, hit his ball and then drive out. It was on the first hole and I was standing next to Ambassador. I asked why he didn't do anything, he said he had no authority.

But did he rake it???

Maybe TV needs a few putt putt courses?

there will always be in any kind of group one wants to focus upon those who do as they please and as though rules are for others not them.

Thankfully these are the 1% that somehow get all the chatter.

I prefer to dwell on the other 99% that are doing what is expected.

Would love it if that dope who drove into the sand trap be banned from playing golf here in The Villages.

My reaction assumes this is NOT one of the carts that is designed to go in traps for folks that cannot walk.


Not knowing all the facts, just picturing the situation you posted, I think a reasonable response is:

• ban the person in the cart for n months. where n='a long time'
• fire the ambassador, BS he has no authority.
