My guess would be that you are hearing cat calls more than talking.
When my buddy and I are playing a casual round, we are quiet when we are teeing off the pad. However, on mid range and/or putts, we cough, shout, or make some other kind of noise. Once he flipped me on the arse with a towel. Anyway, I think if you play like that when someone is trying to distract you, it will make you better when things are quiet and you can concentrate easier.[/QUOTE
HaHa. Maybe you are right! Same here it is only when we are teeing off. We still have a great time. Its not like I am a stick in the mudd and don't want anyone talking during the whole round.
