Gday All

Well had another round at eynesbury today 11/10/09 didnt play as well as i did yesterday but thats another story all together...

Anyway I could not believe my eyes when i got to the green on the 4th... some idiot golfer and his matesand i dare hope it wasn't a member of eynesbury becuase this person would need to be banned.

This idiot and his mates late yesterday afternoon decided to treat the green as a skid pan for the cart.....Much as most people hate carts for whatever reason they are a part of golf...but to some people the keys should never be handed to...

For the life of me why these golfers had to do such a thing is beyond me... i would have thought that those that enjoyed the game would respect the course they are playing rather then hacking up a nice course...

I am glad i never seen these idiots do it becuase i dont know wether i would have been able to control myself i think i would have had to belt them around the head with there drivers...

Anyway i spoke to the course marshall as was going around and made mention to him... he said we already knew as it happened late yesterday afternoon...

I can handle some people wanting a bit of fun on the course and having a few beers as they go around the course but to be fair dinkum dickheads is another thing...

I hope these people have been told never to return to the course once they returned the cart...

I just hope it was'nt a member that did this

cheers

****ing pricks.

Sadly this seems to be quite a problem for some golf courses these days..

One course I regularly play is constantly graffitied by vandals on the greens.

at my local course ,one night last week some kids had gone in and used sticks or some other implements to gouge out graffiti on 5 greens ,putting over this was a nightmare ,anyways the greenkeepers seem to have done a good job to fix it ,

wouldnt you just love to catch these little bas***ds

Yesterday someone stole the flag and dug the cup out of the ground. I guess they wanted to make a home chipping green and were short of cash to buy their own cup.

How was the green, puttable?

Some redneck bogans dug up a few greens at Gordonvale on their quad-bike a few weeks back. :neutral:

As if that wasn't bad enough, they put the pins right near the tyre marks. :roll:

fortunately it was still very puttable as the pin was at the front of the green and there was alot of breathing space between the cart marks and the pin...if you had of landed in the spot of the tyre marks it would have been annoying...

on the next hole at eyensbury on the 5th a few weeks back they had a car of idiots decided the road wasnt good enough but the fairway was the place to do burnout's

I can understand in ways why our memberships and greenfees go up as we need to repair these such things so we have perfect greens and fairways...

I've heard a story about a guy doing jail time for causing over 100k damage to a course with his car

I heard a story about a guy parking his car upside down on the 18th green at headland. If you know the hole, you can understand how that might happen.

I asked him about it, and he says "I dont remember doing that" which if you knew the guy, technically doesnt mean it didnt happen.

Have hasd the same type of problem several times in the last few years. Fortunately as the area around the course gets more built up it is happening a lot less although on Saturday , hit our teeshots on the 15th , short par 4. @ kids ran out , picked up 2 of our golf balls, jumped on their bikes & rode off.
I was lucky as my ball had missed the fairway.:)

Half the clubs are asking for trouble. They have the speed of the carts turned up too fast. A lot of members complain when the speed is turned down, but stiff shit.

For the life of me, I cannot see the amusement in hooning in a vehicle which is going at about 12km/h.

Jack it just occured to me that our courses are reciprocal, I might have to come down to Vic to meet the grumpy old prick behind the keyboard..

'Jack' may in reality be a 22yo librarian with no inhibitions, but using the online persona of a GOP.

I'm not that old, nor that grumpy.

Public course players should expect this sort of thing same as having the bunkers full of footmarks, and 5 hour rounds etc.

Eynesbury is ordinary anyway.

MT - PM me when you are coming to town. I have a suspicion we may have played before anyway.

Had this happen at Woodford on the 7th green one Saturday night, when club was the venue for a 18th b'day party, was bit of a shock for the first group of the social clubs the next day, and a crap job for one of the greenkeepers to change the hole.

Speaking of Woodford. What condition is the course in these days?

do you accept someone doing burnouts on your front lawn jack becuase your house is on a public street?

Public course or not this kind of behaviour should not happen at all

yes certain things on a public course 1 may have to accept but burnouts in golf carts is not 1 of them...

Webster

I would never allow golf carts on my front lawn - it is strictly "walking only" at my place. And besides, it has a 4 foot high friggin picket fence all the way around it to keep the ****tards out.

Eyensebury is a craphole - it probably did thousands of dollars worth of improvements anyway.

This was a common occurance at Keperra in the late 80s on the par-3 8th, during the Saturday comp no less. The prick would hide in the creek bed and wait for a gap in the field, do his business and jam it in the hole with the flag stick. After numerous trys the club eventually caught him...

At my local course a couple of losers on the beers were doing dohnuts in the carts and hanging off the back of the cart while the other was driving. The marshall told them to leave. They knew this kid from their school days. They chased him back to the pro shop. A bit of a fight ensued, including the local pro. The young marshall got hit over the head with an iron from one of the losers and needed stitches. Both tools got charged.

This is how dumb they are...they handed their drivers licence in for the cart and then whack someone over the head.

Very dry, plenty of grass on the fairways , just dead, need rain, greens were cored, scarified and sanded 3-4 weeks ago, so still a little bumpy and slow.
