A single is pretty much going to wait behind a foursome every time. I’m always hyper aware of this any time I play, and if there’s an open road ahead I’ll waive them through.
But maybe if we all slowed down a bit and enjoyed the moment and the friends around us, instead of the pressing need to get it over with, maybe we might find our way back to the essence of golf. 🤷🏻♂️
I somehow don’t think the originators of this game were worried much about the clock as they...
Sounds like they were nice kids having fun. And you enjoyed yourself as well. I’d say golf as an institution could use more of that. Regardless of the impatient, angry “old ladies”, I’m not sure that was such a bad day on the course.
I’m in between right now. On the one hand I feel like things are settling into a good place game-wise; on the other, I’m feeling physically beat up enough that a week or two away from the game might not be such a bad idea.
In that same vein, I played a set of Taylormade Stealth rentals in Mayakoba a few months back that were not at all like my regular set, and I found them to be eminently playable. So much so that I considered for a moment moving away from my Mizunos…then I got home and hit my Mizunos again. 😎
I’m not completely disagreeing, just throwing out some food for thought.
OTOH, as far as bending for lie angle goes, (my) post #20 in this thread describes my position there.
