Sometimes it’s hard to decide to play golf on Nintendo Switch or play on a real course in the elements. I recently had an experience where I wished that I had stayed home and played golf on my Switch or Playstation.
When you play golf on Switch, you don’t have to worry about other golfers, especially ones with bad attitudes, coming up behind you and giving you anxiety. Playing real golf makes me a little anxious at times anyway.
I was playing on this small, 9-hole course the other day and a light rain was coming down; it was the kind of weather that I liked playing golf in. When I was playing on the 4th hole, a fun par 3, I noticed this older gentleman coming up quickly on the hole behind me. He was playing very fast. When I put my ball into the hole, my phone rang. It was an important call. I walked off the course slightly and took the call. The elderly gentleman played the par 3 rapidly. When he was done, he approached me with a heated look on his face.
He asked, “Do you want to play together?”
“I’d probably slow you down,” I replied. “You can go ahead of me.”
He chuckled and walked on in a huff. I wanted to play alone, and he looked like a fast player. There was no one behind me after the call, so I could take my time.
After some time passed, I was setting up my shot on the 6th tee, and I saw the older gentleman talking to the ground crew guys who were working on the putting green of the hole ahead, hole 7. It looked like he was yelling, and he kept pointing at me. His arms were very animated. I hit my shot with a 3 wood and the ball landed near a sand trap. As I was walking to my ball, I saw the older gentleman coming toward me in the distance.
As he began to approach me, I took a few practice swings with my pitching wedge. My hand on the grip got tighter as he came closer. He looked upset. I stopped studying my shot and just stared at him. Suddenly, he stopped in his tracks, and turned around and started walking in the opposite direction. He was muttering something as he left my hole.
After that interaction, I shot 2-over. So, not a bad day on the course in hindsight.
Golf in my living room never involves worrying about any speedy, angry players rushing me. I’ve probably played a round of golf on “Tiger Woods PGA Tour,” on Playstation, hundreds of times, and not once have I ever felt hurried while on a difficult hole.
It’s great to have friends that look out for you that bring stuff to your attention when you may have missed while being bombarded with stuff on social media.
