I have the greatest respect for the Ammerican pro's, it's just the other type who get right up my nose.
those who turn up and think they own the club, and the rules do not need to be comformed to.
If they behave then ok if not go back to the colonies.
rant over. :cool:

I don’t think its good practice to lump a whole country into one category of person. There are American idiots and there are also English Idiots, and any other nation. I also know for sure that there are Americans who are great people to be around and spend time with.

I don’t really want to get into this too much because it’s not what the post is actually about and its not very golf related and that’s really why I am here but I think it’s dangerous to make sweeping statements about a hole race of people.

Yeah that's stupid.
How can they forget the fecking shortbread you lot eat. With your tins of Irn Bru.
And your freckles.
You ginger haired, kilt wearing, bagpipe playing, Scotty Dog walking, Irn Bru swilling, Shortbread munching knob

 
I think they where right, I wouldn't want to pay a huge greenfee and look forward to a special day and see some crazy Scot in a kit bending over to pick his ball out the hole!!

Smiffy you also forgot to add ,where the game of golf was invented ya knob :)
 
If this was the same American gentleman that I saw wearing a kilt when I played Carnoustie last month, then Troon did the right thing. He looked an absolute idiot. His "Kilt" was a poor copy and not really a kilt at all, his headgear was atrocious and yoiu could hear him hootin' and hollorin' all over the course. Why cant they be quiet and respect other players on the course? They constantly shout to each other even when close and don't keep quiet when players are putting or playing on adjacent greens and tees.

What is the weather like up there..........on the moral high ground?? :)

Yes, every nation has it's fair share of idiots. However, the US seems to have more than it's quota and enjoys exporting them.

Similarly, having just spent the last two days in Inchinnan near Glasgow, I can definitely confirm that there are way more Gingers in Scotland than anywhere else I have ever been! :)

Fact. Not just a sweeping statement.
 
Can you not get married in a kilt? If the answer's yes then as far as I'm concerned it's smart enough for the golf course.

Also, someone stated that women can't play at Troon - they have to play another course - that can't be allowed in this day and age, can it?

Sounds like Troon needs to be dragged kicking and screaming into the 21st century! :mad:
