Golf pet peeves

Do you folks have any? Guys who bring their chicks with them and anyone who duck hooks a ball from 150 into the woods and still checks the hole when he can't find it, for me.

Thought about starting a similar thread earlier ... may just be me, but, guys who "rep" their college team of choice. And let me be clear by what I mean. I'm talking a team golf bag, team headcovers, team visor, and a team polo. Good lord man, a simple polo would have done it!

Know what pisses me off? When old dudes refuse to let young groups play through because "they don't have ettiquette so I don't want to play behind them." Listen here you old mother fricker, you NOT letting us play through is TERRIBLE ettiquette.

People that hit a ton of practice shots after they hit terrible ones. I don't mind every now and then, I do it myself a little, but don't hold the group up.
Slow play. Take a couple half practice swings to get a little rhythm, line it up, check your grip, waggle, and go. Don't stand there gazing at the trees after your 4 practice cuts like you're on #12 at Augusta on Sunday.
People who can't let go of a lost ball. This isn't the US Open, hoss.
But, by far, is the guy who tells you what you're doing wrong without me asking. I know I have things I need to work on, but i'll do that later. We're not having a fricking range session right here in the #8 fairway... I know a guy, consider him a good friend. Neither of us is good. We both shoot high 80s a lot, but he's way more sporadic, and is the world's worst at this. I'm not interested in the advice of someone I'm beating on the reg.

I hate tee coordinators. I have never met a happy tee coordinator
Also I hate people who are obviously terrible and have been playing terrible all round but they still get mad at every bad shot they hit like they expect to hit a good shot when they can probably count all their birdies in ther life on one hand
But the absolute worst is courses that are in terrible condition, have terrible practice facilities and that have 50% jean wearin golfers but act like you are supposed to play 9 holes at 2 hours or less and think that they are second to only Augusta

Too many to list!

The all NIKE 4somes from bag to 20XI balls.
They usually have money on the game and take forever on each shot

I don't mind if dudes bring their woman to golf with them but if you are in front of someone then at least have the common courtesy to let them play ahead of you...

I don't mind letting groups play through because I don't like to play with a group on our arse for 18 holes. But, for god's sakes, please don't take your sweet-arse time while we are waiting for you to play through. Don't plumb-bob on the green when you are putting for a snowman. Don't look in the woods for lost balls. Play through quickly and then GTFO.
Another pet peeve (that I have only encountered a couple of times but is annoying as hell) is some dipshit spitting sunflower seeds on the greens. That should be a breach of etiquette punishable by the most painful death imaginable.

My biggest pet peeve are people who think they 'own' a course. At copper mill there are 3-4 groups who think that when they get on the course, its theirs. If they shank their prov1 OB, they will spend 20 minutes looking for it and you will just have to deal with it. They ain't letting you play through either.

People who have a complicated pre shot routine for putts, and go through that routine on an 8 inch putt.
ETA: This only applies for me when I am in the fairway and pre shot routine guy is on the green. Slow players don't really bother me that much if they are in my group.

Autograph hounds during the round. Just wait until I'm done and I'll sign.
That and crappy courtesy cars.

Jackasses who want to talk about the worst thing you could do on the next shot.... I fricking hate that. Jinxing motherfrickers.

People who enter tournaments they have no business playing in, and I get to watch you shoot 100 like I'm playing in a damn pro-am

Has...guys who park their cart at the front of the green been said? Holy shite there is usually a good spot to park in the back. I'm trying to tee off on a par three and I got guys walking 20 yards right at me. Then they fill out the scorecard and what not 
Then drive off

I love the shite out of that "Get in the hole!" yell on a 470 yard par 5.
