Everyone commits the occasional faux pas, but that's to be expected.

But overall, I move around a course very efficiently and I "take care of business". I always rake traps, fix ballmarks (mine as well as several others), and I'm always aware of other people and how I interact with them. My father taught me all of the "finer points" of golf and I learned all about putting lines, flagsticks, shadows, coughs and a host of other things long before I could even hit a ball consistently. He made sure that I understood the etiquette and the manners of the game and that I practiced them, otherwise I wouldn't be allowed to play.

Today, aside from the occasional "colorful metaphor" after a particularly gruesome effort, most people wouldn't even know I was there (but the flag finds its way back into the cup, their forgotten wedge ends up in their hands and the green looks better than when we arrived)


(Hmm, just who was that bald-headed Polack?)
