I've seen enough bullying with rules. It frequently is accompanied by insults (implied and explicit) for not knowing the rules. I like to think that our weekly unsanctioned pickup round proves that a non sanctioned round can be decent, respectful, cooperative, fun and not so bloody hung up about foot fault x, two meter rule y, or whether or not the blinker I keep on my putter is Approved or not. When serious players wanna tune up for a sanctioned event, they'll card up together. We'll send out a mixed card next, but everyone plays "togetherly" and we meet up at the end to commiserate and share stories. Sorry if that pisses you off. We're on our third year, 60+ consecutive weeks, and cats keep coming out to join us. This is just how it's gonna be.
