How much of a golf whinge-bag are you?

[AMcC]

Been trying hard lately to not moan as much, it depends on how I have been doing.
Mainly annoyed at myself

It's not easy

 

[richart]

I am mellow for 99% of the time. If I hit a bad shot I am miserable for a few seconds then get over it. Actually I may need to change that to 95% as I do hit a lot of bad shots.

 

[Oddsocks]

I think everyone has a moan when their playing bad when they know there's a better game in them, but the only things that stress me are unrepaired pitch marks and unraked bunkers.

People can talk all they want on my back swing, just please don't have your mobile ringing,

I said 20% I'm quite relaxed, anytime I'm annoyed it's usually with myself, unless my playing partner takes an age over every shot or cheats pretty much

See ball ... hit ball ... walk to ball (repeat). And that's all there is to it folks

I have difficulty with the first of those! :mmm:

I'm sure..... but do you moan about every single thing around you that isn't perfect to your specification? eg: those guys in the hoodies, that chap who didn't repair his pitch mark? that guy who seems to head off to the next tee before anyone else in the group has putted? the greens aren't as flat as you'd like, the guy you're playing with who just doesn't seem to take it as seriously as you, the grips need changing on your clubs, your glove isn't the one you wanted, your ball always seems to find the bad lie, the holes weren't cut 20 minutes ago, the wind changed, your playing partner has hit 4 balls in the rough during his rond and insisted on spending his FULL 5 minutes looking each time despite the fact that entire tribes have been lost in that grass!!! ..... any or all of those on a given day?

Not at all I first read it as incontinence , I should have went to -------------.

I thought so, had to read it twice myself to make sure that isn't want I'd written

Nope,

Pitch marks,
Unraked bunkers.
Mobile phones that are not on silent, don't care having one but turn the ringer off.

Oh and slow play, but I think that's a given for most,

I rarely moan about the course but don;t half get wound up at myself

Still not sure how all my graphite shafts are intact

Can you specify which set,,,

I'm as casual as they come on the golf course -I'm there to relax and enjoy myself

Im with that man 100per cent. :thup:

Work is for politics and to listen, without choice, to others bleat.

Family is to listen to her bleat....but also to prioritise for. That's why I go to work.

I started to play golf again last summer to escape all of the above.

Therefore, I'm one chilled mofo....

 

[stevie_r]

I don't think I whinge on the course at all, it's only golf - it doesn't put food on the table and it's what I do for relaxation and enjoyment; I might utter the odd expletive now and again but that's about it.

 

[Whee]

I'm usually alright with background noise, don't mind it at all....

....but get a Koran 4 ball on an adjacent tee or green, and i'm just about ready to kill.

 

[Smiffy]

I don't let anything bother me on the course. I think I am the most laid back golfer I have ever played with.
