David shares war stories from four straight days of golf, including players who ignored his wife, walked through putting lines, and tried hero shots from the rocks. Steven learns there's more to golf manners than just staying quiet.
What we discuss:
- David's four-day golf streak and varying etiquette experiences
- The unwritten rules: reading the room and following the group's lead
- Tee box hierarchy and choosing the right tees for your skill level
- Ready golf vs. traditional order - when to play fast vs. by the book
- Why women get overlooked in golf groups (and why that's terrible etiquette)
- The rocks story: when to take relief instead of being a hero
- Cart etiquette, music on the course, and moments of silence
- "Good golf is boring golf" - why hero shots usually backfire
Key moments:
- Player walks through everyone's putting lines like "a bull in a China shop"
- Two beginners try to drive the green, hit it OB, then ignore David's wife
- The importance of playing tees that match your skill level
- Why you should "suck faster" if you're going to suck
Bottom line: Golf etiquette isn't about being fancy - it's about respecting other players and keeping the game enjoyable for everyone.
