i think it stems from the way some people are raised. people are much more self centered than they were years ago. for this reason you need to be prepared when you go out alone with a cell phone, water...and whatever will help you survive for a few hours alone. ron c7

I was in the back parking lot and tried to go over a 5 foot wide dirt patch that connects to a golf cart path. I do it all the time, but they spilled sand all over the area. Of course I ended up getting stuck in it. I waited about 10 minutes then 2 guys (looked about 18 years old) walked up to T-off. I yelled “Can you help me”. They looked over, but did nothing. I waited till after they T-offed thinking they would help after they hit the balls. I yelled again, but all they did was look at me, talk to each other and looked away. As they were walking to the next hole, they got closer so I tried 1 more time. One calls back “How are you stuck”. I told him I was stuck in some sand. They just looked at each other and kept walking. So I yelled back “You guys are cold blooded.” The next group of guys that came by helped me out. I can’t believe guys would do that. At least I didn’t have to wait too long. It was starting to get very hot out. Greg
