Unpopular golfing opinions

[jim8flog]

Did you carry on any other sports e.g. football, cricket etc?

No. Golf became my only sport because I could use a buggy to get round.

I had already had to give up badminton, squash, table tennis and ten pin bowling.

I like the idea that golf is inclusive (from an ability perspective), and we can all play from a young age and then continue to play it as we age, long after we've abandoned other, more physically demanding, sports. So I'm going to ditch my unpopular opinion that buggies should be banned.

However, I still think buggies should be single seater, only available for people who need them, and cart paths ruin a course.

Employing a servant to carry your bag is not a good look for golf and creates an image of golf as exclusive, stuffy, and archaic. Caddies should be banned from all golf.

Lots of sport would be improved by this.
Would love to see F1 drivers have to get out and change their own wheels instead of the serfs.
No ball boys in footy / tennis.
No subs in footy if you can’t last 90 mins.
Maybe not though.

In solidarity with DelC, the golf hole is too small
