golf rules and etiquette when making the turn?
I was playing 18 holes the other day at a local course and when I made the turn from #9 to hole #10 there was three groups waiting to tee of off . I was told that the starter told these groups to start on the back nine because the front nine was busy. There was no ranger at the tee box to let us play thru . should I have told the other groups that I was making the turn and cut in front of them ? I didn’t want to start a fight on the tee box .
I can’t say for all courses, but the ones in my area are “those making the turn have first right to the tee”. They even have signs in between the 9th and 10th holes that say that. I’d check with the starter or pro- I think you got hosed… won’t do you any good now, but in the future things will be different.
