Where Playing Partners Stand when I tee off

[chris661]

Do you think it can make1000 posts by midnight?

I can guarantee it won't.

Is it time for this to be put to bed? Or keep this thread just for folk to wander in and argue and moan which will mean the rest of the forum should be clear of it :whoo:

Do we really need another lengthy thread on this utterly unimportant guff?

No.

This is locked, argue the toss on the other thread please.

Ta.

Well it wouldn't be like you to shut a thread simply for the sake of it...

Excellent post Phil, but I was taught that is was frowned upon not to go the right hand side of the tee and it has been a shock to learn that not everyone does/was taught this.

Out of interest, when you have played at away courses have you noticed where other competitors or PP have stood?

I understand why you wanted discussion all on one thread butbitnwas a shame to have closed a useful poll

Agree the poll was useful

Is it possible to merge the two threads ?

The other option would be to merge both threads, but that might totally confuse things

the poll started as a poll, but then started discussing the same things as on the main thread, so we ended up with 2 threads on the same subject

Hope that explains the thinking (yes it was thought about) behind it

Dunno but I will stick a poll on this thread instead.

Yes if the consensus is to merge , it can be done

views people please

Problem with merging is the posts on the other thread will get lost, would be easier to just stick a new poll on here.

I vote for a merge as opposed to just adding a new poll :thup:

Well we often have multiple threads on best ball to use in winter, forum driving distances etc but you don't close them threads. Some consistency is needed I think

We could lose the duplicate (discussion) posts on the poll thread, then unlock it.

I reckon this will reach the magic 1000 you know.

 

[chris661]

Right after all that faffing about they are merged and the "old" poll is on here.

And that ends my meaningful contribution to this thread :lol:

So everyone you have ever played with has always gone to stand to face player on tee, even when approach path is on opposite side?

Easily
