I have a higher handicap, but I know how to take care of the course. I fill my divots, repair my ball makes plus one or two others, and rake out bunkers. I did not need to attend the good golf school to do this. Low or high handicap, exec or championship course, it comes down to the player's respect for the course and others.

Carnage on the Golf Course
Methinks a Golf Course is a perfectly good waste of a good Rifle Range.. Perhaps we should convert a few...

Does everything have to be to the letter of the law? GE, I take it as a wonderful sense of humor. No violence or Ice Picks, Fireworks, Sidearms, just some locker room humor from an avid golfer. Oh I forgot locker room humor doesn't go over to well anymore! I love it. Keep it coming.

Methinks a Golf Course is a perfectly good waste of a dog park. Kidding of course! Too many gators in the ponds.

Love Of The Game
The nice thing about this stage in my life coupled with living in The Villages is that I can play golf about as much as I want or not. I have a choice from a number of championship and executive courses. The game is really now a game and as such I dropped maintaining my handicap altogether along the way
I seldom ever keep score on the executive courses but still play by the rules of golf . I walk the executive courses and carry a bag for exercise. i enjoy listening to the birds feeling the breeze on my face chatting with guys i often meet at the first tee. Sometimes the course is not what it should be but its a course. Courses like human beings should be taken as you find them Of late the executive courses have been in good shape. I play with guys who play at all skill levels but understand the prominent point is that we share the love of the game together. But mostly for me its the thrill when at some point I will succeed and strike the pure shot. |

Back to OP'S original post, I agree golf etiquette is really lacking by too many golfers in The Villages. Of course, golf should be fun and for most of us who no longer play "competitive golf" it's a high priority. However, there is no excuse for not fixing ball marks, raking traps, filling divots and practicing golfing etiquette as we have fun playing golf here in The Villages. And don't forget to play "ready up" golf so we can all have fun. Fore!
