The improving their lie, don’t care. Enjoy the game how you want. I’ll do it to if conditions dictate it, but I won’t post a score where I don’t play by the ROG-at least to the best of my ability. Same with mulligans. It can be annoying if they take multiple a side, but if that’s how they enjoy the game I really don’t care. My first time playing with THP’ers I topped my tee ball on hole one. I reteed. In my defense I thought I’d have another hour to warm up and was told to get to the tee.
Took about 3 practice swings and topped one 75 yards in front of me into a lake. It was also a muddy quagmire so I played LCP the entire round. I didn’t post the score so it didn’t matter. We were out to have fun.
Look I certainly am not the no-fun police. I play golf to have fun. I’ll play outside of the rules at times, I just don’t post those rounds. This year it’s been the wettest year on record so far. I’ve only got about 8 rounds in to date due to this and coaching obligations, and I’ve only posted 4 scores.
I don’t look at someone that uses marijuana as less moral. But I’m fine if my 7,14, and 15 year old do at this point in their lives. While I personally don’t really care, hell.. I might even at times away from my kids if I didn’t have to worry about losing my job if I was pulled for a random test, but it shouldn’t be done where others kids have no choice but to know what’s going on. I don’t drink to excess around my kids, although there are times I’ll have a drink around them. One legal, the other not. I won’t set a bad example by being a drunken fool in front of them even if I’m home and it’s perfectly legal.
My views are just that. My views. And if it upsets me a little that someone would use marijuana in an immediate enough vicinity of them that they know what’s going on, I think I have the right to be a little upset by it. I’m not super upset, I reserve that for drunk fools that are playing 30 minutes a hole (lol-if you know what I’m talking about, it’s lol on that). I set a bad example for them that day. Someone else set a bad example for them in my OP. At the end of the day, both are what they are. Poor decisions.
