Those were 4 rude golfers. Waited every shot on them on the front except for putts. Drove up on them 3 times as they were leaving the tees & they wouldn't let us thru. Nobody in front of them. Got thru on 10 when they went to clubhouse & we continued. 4 terrible players that wouldn't let a 2 some thru. Ignorant & Sad

There's just no excuse for that. Nobody is asking anyone to be great at golf. Just keep pace with the group in front of you and let the group behind you play through if they are pushing you. It's just not that hard, but hardly anybody polices it.

He said there was a group of seniors in front of them that caused the delays. He isn't terrible and tries to play fast. You probably didn't see the group they were waiting on.

Ohh boy here we go. Been a marshall for a long time & that’s the #1 excuse. “Not us, it’s the group in front of us”. Gonna say this & then leave it alone. If we are talking about the same group or person, they are a liar. Mirimichi is wide open & you can almost see the whole front from anywhere on the front. Your buddy might be a decent player that rolls but he was part of a group that played slow & wouldn’t let a faster group thru. A good player in a group would have stepped up & let us thru. Didn’t happen.

18 holes walking, played a new glove for each non chipping or putting stroke.

Seriously though, 86. Two months ago I couldn't control my tee shot to save my life and I played military golf with my irons (left, right, left, right). Now I'm hitting pretty much every fairway and hitting my irons as smooth as ever. Problem is two months ago I was able to get up and down all the time, now I can't make a good chip or sink anything past 8 ft to save my life. Ugh. I'm actually scoring worse by hitting good drives and irons. Didn't see that coming.

Anybody in Nashville area playing tomorrow and need another? All my golf buddies are out of town and the weather will be perfect. I'm around 6-7 handicap.

golf. It's hard to put it all together. I've wondered if I grind harder and focus more on my short shots when I miss fairways. Unfortunately for me, many times I will come through on a tough shot, but will have something basic in front of me and blow it.

I know that's the same issue I have. I would challenge my ability to punch a shot through the trees against anybody, pros included. I was definitely taking the chips for granted today and kept coming up short, time and time again.

41 today. Still not chipping great, but my putting came through today. Only 13 putts with one chip in from just off the green.
