Where Playing Partners Stand when I tee off

[ColchesterFC]

Well spotted sir!

The tee markers are only very rarely at the back of the tee - and it is a very long tee front to back.

But surely they'd still be behind the player teeing off looking down the line and I think that we all agree that is not the done thing to do. Maybe next time you're there you should move the bench to the side of the tee facing a right handed player. But if the sun was setting ahead of the tee you might have to move it back.

Does anyone know if Fish has took his dog for a walk yet?

Or if he stands facing the dog when it pees?

As long as he isnt in the dog's eyeline while it's peeing then he should'nt put it off

This has occurred to me - but it is fixed in position.

We've got 'em crossed still

I'd rather somebody stands 10 yards behind the ball than 3 yards away face to face, but at the end of the day if you can't see them it doesn't matter! I might stand in a different place on every tee this weekend and see if I get asked to move wherever I stand. 18th tee on Sunday I might try standing with a foot either side of the ball as I imagine that will be the first time somebody has an issue with where I am

As long as you are standing sideways facing the player it should be ok. If you are standing looking down the fairway/down the line of the shot then there might be a problem.

I am just admiring what a terrible position the photographer who took you avatar picture has taken up.....

Bad man.

There must be a awful lot of Golf clubs still closed up and down the country because of the weather, for all this nonsense.

I can't believe it took 590 posts before one of us noticed

I have been thunking about this and think there may be a business opportunity here. How about adjustable teeing off blinkers? Clip them on and they blank out anything outside your own preferred tee box comfort zone.

Here is a clip of a prototype I knocked together. What do you think ?

Could you add ear muffs to the design to block out noise as well?
