Ok, Golf Bug Driving Range, South Birmingham. What an experience.
I hadn't been to this range in about 12 months, having used a Direct Golf range which is just 5 minutes up the road.
I recognise they are trying to make improvements at this particular range in question, but something just took the biscuit today.
Anyway, I get my 90 range balls for £4 which I can't argue with. So I gathers the gear from the car and heads to the range facility. There were a few guys in the first few bays hitting away, and so I heads off to find myself a bay to hit from. Anyway next thing, the local families start to turn up. Two young girls, (Tom-Boyish girls) start to wack away, with their dear Mother filming them. Which is fine, until they start legging it up and down the range behind you, shouting 'Your Sick' each time you hit a shot. They eventually left having got rather bored, I would have imagined!
To the next point, how about this; collecting range balls by hand!?
I have never seen this before, but my god, what an idiot. I am kind of gutted I didn't shank one straight at him. That would have taught him. Anyway, he got rather close to the bay I was in, while he was collecting balls by hand and whilst I still had 20 balls or so left, he asked me if I had finished using them so he could collect them!!!!! I replied; 'well, what do you think?' I hope to god, this guy is insured to walk around a driving range collecting balls.
Here he is, making a star appearance at the Golf Bug Driving Range;
Oh, and then he got a bit closer;
Never, NEVER again, will I use this range
