Probably tastes like entitlement.

Ahh, there's the "E" word again. The answer for EVERY COMPLAINT in these forums that the gang doesn't agree with. Surprised I haven't seen "if you don't like it move."

Yup ... same old folks same old meaningless personal comments. Can always count on the same few for that. Makes me happy that I have made you laugh. You're welcome.

One person actually gave me the suggestion (name and location) of who I might speak to which was the only thing I asked in the OP. Everyone else told me what they think with no or unsubstantiated facts behind it.

Starter is nowhere near the "path/driveway/concrete road", probably 100 feet down the section off the "path/driveway/concrete road" where carts line up. Maybe we are taking about 2 different things or places all this time? We have already ALMOST been hit with a ball walking on the MMP. It bounced 2 feet in front of us. We retrieved it for the golfing guy looking for it. He had orange balls. Thought they were supposed to be white. So walking on the "path/driveway/concrete road" is probably safer. [/quote]

NO! WHY? you asked .......... . I'll tell you. BECAUSE I HAD NO IDEA WHAT OR WHO "THE PRO AT MALLORY IS" or what he does or looks like or where he lives as I don't play golf. The only "pros" I am aware of are those who get paid for playing golf like you see on television. Does the "pro" actually make The Villages rules that apply to all the Villages golf properties or just regurgitate what they "should be or probably are" like most here are doing because it says somewhere that only golfers who read them are aware of that says you can't walk on a GOLF COURSE.

For all I know the "PRO" was the guy who drives around in the golf cart with the water barrel on the back or sits in the hut listening to the radio which is why I wrote in the OP asking if someone would tell me who to contact. Someone ONE PERSON actually did answer my question which I appreciate and that is what I plan to do. So everyone feel free to continue this but since I actually did have a person kind enough to give me actual name(s) I will pursue it from there.

And just to end this as there is no need for any more replies I will say the actual MMP AKA GOLF CART PATH blind curve around Mallory is dangerous to walkers, runners and bicyclists and personally for me the hill going up the MMP heading south and north causes me bad pain in my knee & hip which is why EVERY DAY for the last almost 5 years I have avoided it by cutting it out using the "path/driveway/street/road/trail/cement/yellow brick road or whatever" that goes between the CC building and the golf course. After 5 years all of a sudden it's different per one guy. We have had a friendly relationship with every other guy in that hut for the last 5 years with NEVER an issue. Maybe this guy really was "The King of The Villages Golf." Avoiding that hill is one of the same reasons I bypass the hill into the tunnel at Stillwater and cross Morse traffic.

@MODERATOR ... feel free to close this thread.

Sounds like "almost pregnant". Can't have it both ways. DEFINITELY would never go onto a (or the) GOLF COURSE.

Dude....time to give it up.....you are wrong...move on

Just carry a small golf bag on your back on your walk and no one will say a word to you!

YAY! FINALLY! Exactly my point.
.... I think well over 4 years doing that should have set a precedent of some sort. [/QUOTE]

You should get an old putter from Goodwill or someplace and walk with it.
Then you would be fully in your rights to walk up to the putting green.
Maybe putt one shot and keep on walking...

What you mean to say is "trespassing on the golf cart path located entirely on the private property of Mallory Hill Country Club". There is no "path/driveway/street/road/trail/cement/yellow brick road or whatever", just the GOLF CART PATH with use restricted to golfers who paid a greens fee to play on the PRIVATE PROPERTY of that club. You can call it whatever you want, but anything other than a golf cart path on private property would be WRONG. So here are your choices:

1) You can walk on the MMP where you belong
2) You can walk elsewhere if you think it is safer
3) You can not walk
4) Or, and I'll bet this will be your choice since you refuse to listen to anyone but yourself, continue to illegally trespass on private property.

Please be careful not to get run over by a cart coming around the curve from the parking area whose driver was unprepared to avoid a trespasser, and pay attention to any golf balls coming at you from 9 of Caroline.

Even better he could dress like Payne Stewart (god rest his soul) for the walk and he would fit right in!

[kidnerkim]

I think the point is it is GOLF COURSE traffic-not multi modal path. Pedestrians out for their daily walk cannot be on golf course. It is simple, common sense. Common knowledge here even before I started playing golf.

Except it is not a public practice green, and he would have no right whatsoever to use it.

True but the professed “non golfer” would never go to the practice green just would fit in the scenery a little better. The obvious answer is just find somewhere else to walk
