I think we should let SILH have the 1000 post. He can have the first and last on the thread which seems fair.:thup:

I'm staggered that this post is this long and although I've read bits n pieces, (if I read from the start I think I'll still be here this time next week reading) I may of not picked up on a view point, so sorry if it's already been said.
While there is nothing in the rule book stating where to stand, if you look in the professional game they all stand facing the player on the tee, all except if there is a left hander in the group then they are behind, as you can't expect the 2 players and caddies to then go over to the other side of the tee just to face him? as amateurs we tend to copy the professionals and do what they do. It's more a habit I think of seeing and doing, and I find myself at times standing behind a player on a tee after I've tee'd off thinking I need to face the player while he tees off. Why? Cos that's where I see the pros stand on the tee. Monkey see.........

From the opening post. I think the Mods should explain themselves.

But the pro don't all stand facing the person who is teeing off
Most of the time they are back right on the tee.

Wasn't there something about only one player at a time being within or on the teeing ground ?

does it matter if it's back right, centre right or forward right, they are SORT OF facing the player on the tee who is playing.

But seen some also stand at the back of the tee and behind the player - seem them stand all over the place
But the main thing is they are being still and quiet

When my dad was teaching me about etiquette and where to stand when someone was teeing off he did reference the 12 o'clock position as being safe. He also said anywhere behind the ball and well back will be safe. Standing down the line would be frowned upon. When he was saying to stand in the 12 position it was a "where to stand for dummies". It was an effort to keep me safe. I was a kid at the time.
