Hi all..
Love the forum, been reading for a while now and love the banter and the knowledge ive gained from you all Thanks!
Ive got a quick question and was wondering what you would do in the same or similar situation. ...
Managed to get out in the sun today all going wellish until on the 18th tee I hooked my drive onto the next fairway, as I walked over I could see this old chap with his dog walking back to his bag which was 20 yards in front of him, he quickly played his shot then off he went... Im pretty sure he picked up my ball, which left me with a sour taste as I lost hole, fuming I was still am a little as I treated myself to a new pack of pro v1x's the day before (first time ever) and it was my last one oo:

Welcome along. Unless you have absolute proof he took it then little point in confronting him. Enjoy getting out and playing a full 18 holes.

Assuming he was very old, and his dog was very small, I would have given him what for. Otherwise I agree with Homer.

 

[Pin-seeker]

I hope it was only a pack of 3.
Welcome to the forum

Thanks. ... I was tempted to confront him but just couldn't believe the cheek, but like you say unless I searched him I hadn't any proof. Oh well what goes around comes around I guess.

Thanks. ... Only joined my first club last summer Yelverton golf club, and very happy I am, it's a fantastic club and course, would recommend a round or two if you get a the opportunity.

let it go , life's too short. It's frustrating and it happens to all of us at some stage.

Welcome.

Is it normal for someone to take their dog with them when they are playing? I've seen many dog walkers on the course but never seen any one playing a round and walking their dog.
