Bad Golf Advice
Was playing golf at an executive course today and there were several course workers removing moss from a tree on a par 4 hole. These workers were several hundred feet ahead of the T-Box and definitely not on the fairway but certainly not out of bounds. When we cautioned them that we were about to Tee Off, they ignored us and continued their work. We all hit our tee shots to avoid errant shots and no harm was done.
(And yes I reported this - as I am sure others have in the past but it obviously continues with some workers. I would think that employers should train, require protective equipment, and monitor conformance with safety protocol) While this may not be common, it does occur. If we ignore their lack of safety and accidently harm someone, I am sure we could/would be held liable. A simple etiquette yell of "fore" would hardly be a defense. |

Had this happen to us about a week and a half ago, I was wondering what the penalty was and if the ball ended up in the bucket how would we play it??? OK on a serious note, we ignored them, but the chain saw they were using to trim branches was annoying.

One thing I DO find rather irritating though is when the "ambassadors" do the same thing. Not frequent but it DOES happen. Not long back one of them stopped on our tee area and proceeded to put sand in divots in the gold and green tee boxes. We tee off from black, and just stood around waiting to tee off onto a vacant green while he finished is (very leisurely) task. |

you could probably get a great home, near the highway, or near an airport with no hearing aids on
