Range Etiquette *Long Rant Warning*

[Craggles89]

so you argument is revolving around my keyboard now.
the OP had no right to expect no one to use the bays next to them.
how does the OP know the bay he was using was the one the other guy had used for 10 years everyday.
the fact is he whent to the range to hit some balls and someone annoyed him
end of nothing to add but get over it .
and since when have GOLFERS been the pinnacles of goodness and light.
some of the biggest scumbags to walk the planet also play golf.

I suppose I could adopt your attitude and tell him "Tough!"?

There's only one person on this thread getting wound up, and it's not the OP...

This is a forum - it's used a shouting board at times for people to let off steam etc

It appears the OP just decided to let it be at the range prob to save a confrontation and for an easier life.

He hasn't asked for a pat on back or any justification etc.

Surely the whole point of a forum, thanks liverpoolphil.
That was my original point to see if anyone else had any experiences like this and how common it was for others. Not to be told I walked away to moan on a forum, seems I'm in the wrong for not wanting to take on the whole world

On the contrary, you find a lot of people on forums who *take on the world* on line, but I somehow doubt they do in real life....!

Your comment is nonsense

Think it's time it calm it a little ?

You're being very confrontational on here at the moment.

i assume you were saying i was a troll,or someone who could not stand by what they said i was just pointing out to you i am neither am sorry you do not know the saying but it is an ancient Chinese proverb we had at my club(martial art not golf)

 

[North Mimms]

Anyhoo...
This thread has out me off going to the range tomorrow.
I hate practicing anyway

Went to the range this afternoon to get rid of the rest of my hangover. Filled with loads of kids and parents with little idea. Loads of noise and distractions. Didn't bother me in the slightest. Found a bay, did my own thing. At the end of the day as long as no-one is actually stopping me doing what I came to do, I'm happy. If someone acts like the guy in the OP and I couldn't move bays (it was rammed today) then just let it go. Life's too short I've decided (especially today without my old man around!!!!)

Do you or any of the members of your martial arts club ever get to a range in Essex?
