What, six guys couldn't take down a sixty year old? Either they're the biggest pussies ever, or the old goat is a retired SEAL.

He broke his club over the guy's head? Must have been the best contact shot he made all day.

Old people need to stop relying on their age as an excuse to get away with shiat like this.

Well, that's a step up from beating a kid with golf ball retrievers.

I'd be pissed too if a drunk, novice 6-some in front of me was not letting me through. Not "drive my cart at them" pissed, more like "land my drive close enough to get their attention" pissed.

Or, they were level headed guys that didnt want to get into it on a golf course with a guy old enough to be thier dad.

A grand milestone, as this is the single most exciting thing to EVER happen on a golf course.

Did you read the article or are you just a moron?

FTA, the old goat hit a drive into them. They threw the ball back. That was when the geezer attacked.

If they are obvious novices, they probably don't know to let faster players through. Which is why a polite: "mind if I play through" would have probably avoided this whole fiasco.

Old fart needs anger management classes.

I love the old, "you should respect your elders" line.

My response is "no can do. My parents taught be to respect my betters. Based on your behavior, you're obviously not one of them."

It usually stuns them into silence, which is good enough for me.

/of course when I *am* being an idiot, the line works perfectly well... mainly because it's a clarification that I'm doing something dumb

Or they respected their elders more than the old man realized. Respected him enough not to beat the crap out of an obviously insane old man.

Golf would the the greatest leisure sport on Earth if it didn't involve coming into contact with the kind of assholes who play golf.

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!


"Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity."


If the old fark wasn't such a pissy passive-aggressive rage monkey it might have occurred to him that they were simply newbies who were unfamiliar with the proper etiquette of the situation. If he'd simply communicated with them like a man rather than lobbing malicious shots at them like a little punk, they'd have probably said "Oh... sure thing. Sorry about that."

one of whom told a witness "they weren't playing the game right."

This is such and old guy thing. They must feel so out of control of their own lives that they have a pathological need to control others.

Fark them. I hope this guy tries to straighten out the jail population.

Sounds like the marshal also needs to make more frequent rounds.

marshal: Good day gentlemen is everything okay?
young guys: yes sir, thanks for asking.
marshal moves on:
marshal: Good day, Is everything okay?
old guy: Actually, the large group ahead of us is slowing down the pace of place... we would like to play through, but they seem to be oblivious to our presence.
marshal: I see your point, six is a rather large group.
marshal approaches large group
marshal: gentlemen, There is a smaller and quicker group behind you. Would you mind letting them play through once you've finished this hole?
young guys: Certainly... We didn't realize we were being a hindrance. Thanks for letting us know
marshal continues on his way

Good thing none of the people in the party was armed or else they could've stood their ground and shot the old guy.

/surprised it didn't happen

The elderly man, Mr. Hines, was not content to yell at clouds.

I guess the price was right.

Usually I find myself stuck behind the old guys and thus start drinking to pass the time.

One time... A time when I was sleep deprived and already on my 2nd Bloody Mary, we allowed a twosome of walkers play through our group of 4. On their way by, they knocked over my pushcart spilling my drink and made a silly comment that it was no big deal- they said they overheard me a few days earlier at the 19th saying that I needed to watch my alcohol intake. THEN they held us up for 12 minutes (I timed it) looking for a ball in the creek. It wasn't kind- it was actually incredibly irresponsible of me- but I teed up a ball in 16 fairway and swung hard in case I hit it. The shot was BIG but errant and everyone was safe.

The plus side of my ugly act is that nobody at the club messes with the white trash girl from New Orleans. We grow up a little cray-cray.
