Ok, everyone. Time for a little refresher on disc etiquette...when you are throwing a disc and it seems as though that disc may be heading in the general direction of ANYONE, you are supposed to YELL the word "FORE". I watched Unit's daughter get hit with a disc yesterday while walking from 11's basket to 12. The dude never yelled, and his toddler daughter got hit in the leg on the fly, leaving a nasty lump and bruise. The disc almost caught one of our party in the back of the head. Again, no "fore"...What the f*ck?!?!. I've been thrown on on several holes lately, and I don't loiter on the course. When I finish a hole, I don't stand there with my finger in my nose...I move on. But, what I don't get is why the people behind me can't just wait that extra 5 seconds or so for me to be clear of the basket area. On blind holes that I can't see the basket, or exit area, I yell "THROWING" before I throw, "FORE" if I even THINK I'm close to someone, and "CLEAR" when I leave a blind basket. Not that hard, is it? Lots of new golfers at Leverich lately, maybe this will help.
