Gonna get some heat for this but:
#1 people with obnoxiously long putting/throwing routines... Just throw the dang thing already!
#2 TDs that have terrible payouts
#3 that guy that has an excuse for every bad shot...no you didnt slip you just f'd up

Oh and I will never ever understand the idea of paying out in order from last to first...if you win shouldn't you get the best selection not the picked through bull crap?
Terrible payouts being crappy selection of plastic, only one brand of plastic, or in general low dollar amount.

I understand it has to be difficult but having a bunch of either low grade and/or light weight plastic as a payout makes paying a $40 entry fee frustrating as well.
Do we get a decent players pack with that? Or does the money go to a worthy cause? We need more tournaments like that.What if the entry fee was $20 and there was no payout?

People that bitch about payouts. Especially, when they have never run their own event.

If you never even bothered to ask them, I'd say it makes you a king douche.To the OP...Sometimes people just have to learn the hard way. You see, I throw by myself a lot, so I run into this problem quite frequently. Maybe they don't know to let people throw through, maybe their just being jerks. But with me.... If I'm on your tail and you don't ask if I wanna play through, you have about a 3 or 4 hole leeway until I'm throwing down on you. If that makes me a douche...oh well.
I haven't been playing very long and Lord knows there's very little about me or my game worth bragging about, but I'm nothing if not considerate.
DG is a great game....and one worth enjoying. I have no qualms whatever about guys on the course taking their time to get every shot right, make every put count, and work their tails off to make their game tip-top. Be you. Do what you do, brother, and tweak that game into a National Championship.
However....
What I absolutely HATE is dudes who have NO consideration for other people. For example, today I was playing The Castle with three of my buddies. We were a foursome and apparently the twosome in front of us started on the back 9. Slow on 10....okay. Might be a bad hole. But no! We're waiting at 11 and they're literally 25 feet in front of the tee-box throwing TWO DISCS EACH. No "Hey, y'all go ahead" or, "Feel free to play through." Just looked back (no courtesy wave even) and then WENT TO FIND THEIR DISCS. Didn't even know where they threw them.
This went on until 17. My foursome waited on every single hole for those two doucherockets. Finally on 17 we're waiting. After five minutes one of them walks out of the woods and says, "You can play through...we're looking for a disc."
As I walked up to my drive I saw the douche who didn't have a beard mad-dogging us seeming to expect us to offer to help find his boyfriend's disc. Nothin' doin', son. F#@! yo couch. Walked on like the Man in Black and birdied that bad boy like it was my job.
I guess the point to this post that I took the scenic route to is that I hate inconsiderate people. If you're slow and people are constantly waiting on you, let 'em play through. Doesn't matter if they have more people....if they're playing faster, stand aside and let 'em go.
That's my pet peeve: Inconsiderance. And yes, I just made that word up. What's yours?
