I am not sure what kind of mob golf was happening at Firefighters today but I can't believe that even a non sanctioned event would allow 30 or more people to play from a single hole. On top of that they wouldn't let our 4 man group play through until they were done teeing off (we walked up after only about half of them had teed off). They bogged down course play while being excessively loud and disruptive the entire time. Did I mention the cowbell! This type of discourteous behavior shouldn't be tolerated.
I was there today as well. I thought at first is there an event going on? No its just DJ disc golf and his 30 man mob league and taking forever to play on just one hole. And the cowbell was unnecessary.
Glad I went to River Bends instead.
This was on the 1st? I know a fee buddies of mine, who I don't disc with anymore really, have organized a new years day round for like the last decade....the loudness, the mob, the cowbell, all sounds like them. I'm surprised that they weren't letting your through easily though as tha ... more
This was on the 1st? I know a fee buddies of mine, who I don't disc with anymore really, have organized a new years day round for like the last decade....the loudness, the mob, the cowbell, all sounds like them. I'm surprised that they weren't letting your through easily though as that doesn't quite seem like them. If you caught them halfway through I can all but assure you that they were just about all 2.5 sheets to the wind. I'm not condoning, but they aren't bad golfers or people. Just get rowdy at times.
Unless you rent out the park you should never have that many people play as one group from every tee pad.
You can't say that and honestly believe it. Bc then we would see a post from you complaining about how the park was shut down for just one group playing and that's not fair. Should have just jumped them and write it off as one of those days. Or be assertive and ask to play through. It's not an event. It's a group of friends who are able to get together one the 1st to play. It happens once a year.
I did ask to play through. I was told my four man group had to wait til they were done teeing off which would have been 15 to 20 minutes so I jumped them. It's a self serving ridiculous format that everyone else has to put up with. I am only complaining because the format is beyond ridiculous and there was no consideration or concern for anyone else on the course.
I totally understand. I'm not saying you aren't in the right to be a bit miffed...I'm explaining to you that you happened across this once a year thing and don't get too up in arms. It doesn't happen all that often out there like that. I'm actually not surprised they as ... more
I totally understand. I'm not saying you aren't in the right to be a bit miffed...I'm explaining to you that you happened across this once a year thing and don't get too up in arms. It doesn't happen all that often out there like that. I'm actually not surprised they asked you wait...most groups would have as well. I am however surprised that they didn't hold up on a hole and allow you to go first...not like it takes long to get from hole to hole at FF. Sorry but your luck
