So I get a call from a friend of mine the other day asking me if I'd care to join him for a round of golf today at Dyker Beach. Being that it has been quite some time since my last outing I happily accepted. His next statement to me was "We have an 11:15 tee time, so really thats 11:45." Now, if you have played golf before on a weekend at a public course you know to always expect backups, a longer round, and a delay getting out to the tee.
Pictured above is the line at roughly 11:05. It is still growing. If we get out by noon I will be shocked. Why do I even bother making a tee time? How hard is it really for a public course to stay SOMEWHAT on schedule. An hour wait is really unacceptable anywhere. Just another reminder of why I never play on the weekends. Its been so long this nonsense had never even crossed my mind before jumping to play today.
On a positive note, its a GORGEOUS day, and I'm out on the golf course, ready to break 100! Watch out now!
