I think it might have been an employee because they mow the greens on Sunday morning and I was the last person there Saturday evening.

I talked to the club pro about losing it and he is the one who told me about it. If an employee took it, it is definitely gone because they would have to admit stealing it because they did not turn it in when they found it. They would get fired for sure. I would not want someone to get fired for stealing my club.

Wouldn't bother me at all. I would feel far more comfortable knowing the the thief was no longer working in a position where he could steal someone else's clubs. I would turn him in in a heartbeat. I'm a golf course employee, and I certainly don't want to work with a thief.

It helps even more to lay them next to or across the flagstick. Makes it almost impossible to forget them.

Even better, leave anything you bring to the green between the hole and your bag. That way even if you forget, someone is bound to notice and at least call attention to it. When I walk off the green I'll pick up anything lying in my path.

I don't like having clubs laid across the flagstick, because if I'm the first to hole out, I always pick it up and get ready to replace it. I don't want to have to deal with the flagstick, my putter and wedge, and 2 or 3 other wedges too, not to mention a couple of wet towels. I do try to be courteous, but I'm not your caddie.
