I think you were wise in just letting it drop. Some of those people out there are not really playing with a full deck. I knew a golf pro once and he ran a golf course. I dropped by one Sunday after my ride and a couple of old guys (over 70) had had a fist fight out on the course over the speed of play. After he told me the story, one of the guys came in sporting a banged up face, skinned knuckles and a huge shiner. I mean is golf really THAT important? Also, who cares if someone is playing a little slow? It is Sunday morning. I marvelled at it. One would think that by the time one got to 70 years old, one would develop the social skills necessary to avoid problem solving with ones fists and face. But apparantly that is not the case.
Your living in the 50's.
