The GM forum 'black list'.

The Black Glove - unless its a rain one
Duffing a chip and then leaving the next one stone dead
Peseants walking their dogs on the course while they're looking for balls and the dog poo's all over the teebox
Shorts on people who really shouldn't be wearing shorts.
Backspin - when you want it you don't get it, when you don't its there in spades
Losing a new ball 1st shot
Muddy paths between greens and tees
Peaseants taking 2 minutes to line up a putt for a 9
Finding my original ball and losing my provisional.

Macho Golfers
You know the ones - Got to have the lowest loft driver with stiffest shaft on the market. Stand on the tee and brag about it. Then proceed to blast away with the most uncontrollable swing ever seen, resulting in the severest slice or hooked ball ever seen - thats when their lucky enough not to have topped it. The same guys that try to hit any of their wedges from way to far out, and wonder why the ball came up short.
And to hear the pitiful excuses for why they got the above results. Its never anything to do with them.

Its great to wipe the smirk of their faces though

People who feel the need to tell you about your swing and what you should be doing differently when you miss a fairway, but are knocking it round in a worse score than you.

 

[Whereditgo]

Wow! There's a lot of angst being got rid of here tonight!

People who stand talking when it's their shot.....just hit the thing! Talk while you're looking for it!

Not repairing pitch marks.

Wearing shorts in February then complaining its cold....well yes! it's FEBRUARY!!!!

Ridiculous (i.e. too close to the edge of the green) pin positions.

Hey it works, I feel better already!

I hate greenkeepers who don't have a clue!

The black golf glove.

I happened to notice that the infamous black footjoy glove was glove of choice for the bloke in the Bourne Supremacy setting the explosives to knock out the electricity in the Berlin Hotel (he then left Bourne's fingerprint on a piece of tape).

Good enough for secret service personnel, good enough for an average hacker. Not enough to convince me though

 

[mansell]

Bunch of old women the lot of you

 

[madandra]

People who want to tell the world about every shot of yet another round of golf on a course I will never see by some knob on an ego trip.

Bobble Hats. What's that all about? It's golf not the winter olympics!!!

I think it was to take your attention away from the pink jumper.

It was January on the east coast of Scotland to be fair.

 

[Swinger]

People who don't check their ball properly and like to pick up the newish pro V without looking around.

I get really annoyed when i have to run up another hole after someone has sworn blind they hit their ball, only to find it's mine. Guess it keeps me fit but that really, really annoys me.

I just wish I'd have checked a few peoples bags too, maybe thats too far but I'm sure one or two have done it.



Get alot of stick for my iron head covers but much less is said about them since I brought the pink carry bag and my Yellow/Purple/Pearl Lizard Skin Foot Joy Icons!!

 

[mancity101]

People on golf forums who have a holier than thou attitude and are obsessed with having the latest of the latest golf equipment

The fact that at some clubs it's fine for the old men to wear Pringle jumpers that have been stuffed in their locker for the last 30 years, are full of holes and covered in god knows what.
But don't allow the rest of us to wear some of the more stylish tee-shirts (like Tiger wears). Despite the fact they are smarter and purpose made for golf.

 

[Deleted member 1147]

People who state that because someones handicap is X they aren't good enough to use certain clubs, without knowing why they have that handicap.

 

[jammydodger]

Clubs that allow paying green fees to whizz about on buggies right in the middle of the club championship

4 hour rounds

duffing it after a stonking drive down the middle

3 putting par 5's after finding the green in 2

ridiculous bunker placements ( like behind a load of trees) , why ?

Ending up in a bunker and finding theres no rake , people not raking bunkers ,or raking their footprints but not the bloomin great divot theyve just hacked up

people talking right up until the moment youre about to swing thinking its ok , no , I want peace and quiet whilst i'm preparing to swing thanks

 

[greensman]

I hate greenkeepers who don't have a clue!

Those who blame every bad shot on the greenkeeper!

 

[bigbiffa]

People who wait for a green to clear on a par 5 when they've hit there drive 150 yards, impatient women who hit from the tee before you've played your second shot.

Whats wrong with shorts ? my legs might not be of model standard but they like to get an airing in the summer.

here here...'moan the shorts!

 

[richart]

Golfers that spend their whole life complaining about what's wrong with their course. If they don't like it go and join somewhere else.

One that amazed me on the forum was someone who was looking to move courses as their current one was too short & easy.

I think he had a 17 handicap

 

[bogside84]

SLOW PLAY 4HR 30 MIN FOR A COMP.
The first 3 thing's I was taught on a golf course

Repair pitch marks and people who say if everybody repairs 2 they will be none (how can you fix 2 if everybody repairs their own )

Rake bunkers whither there is a rake or not (you have a club or you have you foot to make it as good as )

Replace divots when you hit a drive down the middle of the fairway and some **** has not replaced the fireside rug they have ripped out.

People who moan all year about the course etc and when the AGM comes they are nowhere to be seen and then the next day ask what happened last night.
