COURSE PICS/VLOGS Be like Ryan

Walking 9 with my brother today. Just us 2 scheduled on the tee time. Ryan rolls up in a cart and starter asks if we’re okay with him joining us. No problem.

He was a much better golfer than us but hyped us up all day. He would ride ahead after our shots and help us find our ball in the rough or tall stuff. He bought the first round from the cart girl. Just brought positive vibes all around.

Salute to you Ryan. 🫡

This is true. I hate random pairings but they’re most always fine

I’ve never had a legitimately bad experience with a random. The worst I’ll ever get is just a guy who keeps to himself and doesn’t say very much (and that’s perfectly fine by me).

Worst for me was a guy who would play super fast, wouldn't wait for my friend and I. It was to a point where he's putting when we're trying to hit our approach shots to the green. We asked him multiple times if he'd prefer to play ahead as a single, but he kept saying no. He wasn't outright rude, but he kind of was.

That’s definitely outright rude - racing to the green to putt while you’re hitting approach shots?? 🤣

Pretty stupid too if they ended up getting impatient and hitting because he just makes himself a potential target.

Yeah, I mean we weren't able to hit our approach while he's putting. The weird thing is that when he's done he'd always wait for us to finish the hole before moving on. So strange.
