I teed off with my 12 year old yesterday as we like to do once a week. We played a fairly busy, local 9 holer that we had been wanting to try. An older gentleman asked to join us as we waited our turn in the box to which we replied "of course you can." A drive and a short iron for my boy to the dog leg and a ball from the tee box misses him/us by about 10 feet. I quickly turn towards the box and stare at the guy with his hands up like, as I interpret body language as, he is gesturing oh well. We finish up and move to tee box 2. The same guy comes within feet of us again, without a shout "fore", on his approach to hole 1. Now I am pissed but being as I am the adult here, walk over to his ball and proceed to drive it into the ground as much as I could stomp. He and I did not exchange words as no good at all was going to come from it. The gentleman in our group was mad also but could see I was going to blow a gasket so he had words the the d*head. Hole five, I drive long but pull the drive left to the edge of fairway four. As I leave the tee box, i see a player walk up to my ball and put it in his pocket. I walk straight to him and asked for my callaway chrome+ with my initials boldly printed on it. My ball is not in the fairway it is in his pocket. He says I did not put a ball in my pocket. i can see the ball in his pocket. I see to him then take the ball right there out. That is not a ball he says. He should thank a 12 year old boy that he did not get bloodied up right there. My game went to crap after that.....
