Slow golfers are slow on every hole.

Yeah, but if they are behind you, they then will not matter as much.

God bless you always!!!

Problem is, if they let you play through, they will just hold up the next group too.

Best option may be just to beat them up
They will remember next time

Would have saved him a beating

Dad was excellent and even made his own clubs. He also carried cocked and locked and could blow your brains out at 30 yards.

I'd think that, after enough complaints, the course ought to just ban them.

People get tickets for driving too slow.

The next group can also come back later to whatever is not done sooner.

God bless you always!!!

There are groups playing all day
You just can’t come back when the course is empty

Did you skip right over the part where I said it didn't justify getting beat up on purpose, or is there a reading comprehension issue at work here?

He's Canadian. Most are uneducated heathens up there.

Me and dad would often jump a hole. Dad was a walking spitfire and we could kick it into gear and put am entire hole between us before the people in front made it to the green. Former Marine DIs don't dick around.

But if there's an issue you get the range master. They are in charge of keeping things moving.

So THAT is what is wrong with you! It's genetic!

It isn't like you are having to re-do the entire course. You are only coming back to which ever hole you didn't do earlier. How busy do golf courses get? I've never been to one not counting putt-putt places and so I have no idea.

God bless you always!!!

Interesting question.

In the civilized version of golf, people who are slowing down and holding up the people behind them do the civilized thing and step aside while the party behind them plays through.

So i would do it

Once upon a time i played golf in Scotland

Golf, not a sport to begin with. No athleticism required.

Are people in Florida sane? I've heard so many crazy stories about people from Florida, what the hell happened to that place? One crazy story after another, it's like another New York now.

A golfer in Florida is accused of attacking a fellow player for playing too slow and now faces charges over the alleged assault.

Jason Hughes was arrested Thursday and charged with aggravated battery causing bodily harm, according to Fox 35.

The incident happened in June at a golf course in Kissimmee, Florida, according to the Osceola County Sheriff’s Office. Hughes later told deputies that he was upset with the pace of the victim’s play.

The man said he and Hughes exchanged words on the course. The victim was playing with a friend in front of Hughes, who told them more than once to hurry up, according to the report. Many slower golfers will let those playing faster move ahead of them at a hole.

Hughes got angry when he saw the victim talking to his friend on the green of a hole, according to the report.

That is when Hughes allegedly attacked and started to punch the victim in the face. Witnesses broke up the fight and Hughes and his partner fled the scene before authorities arrived, according to the report.

He may have been Scottish. Slow play is monitored and can get you kicked off the course.

A single doesn't have standing to play through. If so everyone group would have to let them through.

A single will always be faster.

Golf, not a sport to begin with. No athleticism required.

Not if you use a golf cart. But if you walk 18 holes and carry your clubs yourself, it's a hell of a workout.

Yea, poor people play a lot of golf IN FLORIDA.
