Do I not like that....

Assuming you're right, I'm annoyed I never spot these!

Maybe because he’s accusing a new member of being something he’s not

 

[Pin-seeker]

I'm clueless.
Perhaps we need a banned list and a waiting list to be posted.

I was informed recently that you’re not allowed to accuse people of having multiple accounts or being returning members.
But a mod did message me asking if I thought someone had a multiple account
So tread careful peeps.

Hats shouldn’t be worn indoors, and shirts should be tucked in. Anthony Kim had his shirt untucked last week and IMO he just looked a mess.

Golf is traditional, it’s (slowly) moving with the times, so I tend to struggle when people take up the game and pay little respect to its traditions.

Why?

So, if golf is traditional and you pay your respects to those traditions, I presume you are dressed like Old Tom Morris and play with hickory shafted clubs and a feathery?

Or do you have a bag full of carbon fibre and titanium alloy clubs, use a gps device and wear modern fabrics?

Pretty sad life is you end up with multiple accounts on a golf forum.

I think I do actually have two accounts here.
I posted fairly infrequently and forgot my user name or login so I set up another account.

You have to tuck your shirt in,wear white socks,wear the correct shorts.
But loud trousers are ok because that’s great fun

Yup, I like his stuff but can't abide that trait

For me Its just about the rudest most arrogant thing someone can do to another person, so even though it's being directed at an inanimate ball, the meaning of the gesture remains

Rules for the sake of rules. Outdated rules that might have been relevant to something 100 years ago, but somehow live on out of some intangible concept called 'tradition'. Not rules of the game, but rules like; thou must not change thy shoes in the car park, thou must not wear thy hat indoors, thou must wear short white socks or long colourful ones with shorts, thou must tuck one's shirt in, etc etc etc. Rules that have absolutely no basis in modern society, it cannot even be explained why they first existed and yet they endure like a stubborn turd that won't flush.

Anyone in polite society that wears a hat indoors needs to be taken out by the local ghillie, and set to run around the heather, whilst toffs in tweed scurry round the undergrowth, with expensive Purdey shotguns, trying to improve general standards of etiquette.

Why? Because I just think hats shouldn’t be worn indoors and untucked polos just look messy. Just my opinion, other people can think differently and that’s fine.

I don’t look at it as black and white, I said earlier I didn’t agree with all of the “traditions” so I’m quite happy for golf to move with the times.

I usually tuck in my polo shirt but if it is really warm it helps keep you cool to leave it untucked. You should try it.

Here's another.

People who tell you to "take your time" when you are about to tap in a putt.
