I don’t let anyone through if we are right behind another group. What’s the point.


It actually slows things down for everyone behind the group that skips.

That would’ve pissed me off as well.
Why in the world was he threatening you?

As a single golfer most of the time (I normally book a tee time with others) I cant count how many times I am at the tee box 5-10 minutes early and the starter tells me the group you are with already teed off at an earlier time(at Santa Maria). You can imagine how slow it at that point as a single playing behind a full tee sheet.

you guys were playing a 3 or 4 man scramble, you should be pretty fast
They were having a tournament later and sent our group of early. The tee times were moved up 20 minutes and I was in the last group because I couldn't leave earlier to get there. There was a couple of holes open because of this and is why we let the twosomes thru.

I can’t stand playing SM too many clowns who think they are Gods gift to golf out there. Too many ppl act like they are “members” and you are burdening them by being on “their” course.

Sadly this is true, though in do find its better this year than last year. I live in the sub and play other courses if i can before SM. Dealing with the entitled old man brigade who think they own the course is rough. It’s not all of them by any means but the ones that ads like that ruin the experience. Also i find the people i get paired with are SM to me overall not as nice than say Webb or Beaver.
