Check out this hard-to-believe anecdote from a recent visit to Biloxi, MS:
Showed up in the morning at a high-end daily fee, and wandered towards the range. Older starter says, "hit some balls for awhile, I'm gonna send out these 8 fellows first."
I had a PM tee time elsewhere, maybe 30 minutes away, so I said, "if you don't mind, I'll skip the warm-up, and jump out ahead of these 2 groups."
He says, "you can't go ahead of those guys, you are walking, They'll be much faster because they're in carts." I was dumbfounded for a sec, and then I said," just let me out ahead of them, and I'll keep up the pace, I promise." He said, "well, OK, but I'll need you to step aside if you are holding them up!"
Needless to say, I never saw them once I walked off the first green....and how can a fellow who woeks at a GC be so incredibly clueless?
