Music, hoodies, and beer: Inside the battle tearing golf apart

Getty Images; Alyssa Powell/BI David Schneider is all for people having fun on the golf course — to a point. The 47-year-old reached said point recently on a rare three-generational outing with his father and son on a municipal course in San Diego. They got stuck behind a foursome of 20-somethings who were downing Coors Lights, smoking cigars, and playing at what he describes as a "snail's pace," oblivious to the groups piling up behind them. "They really didn't care about pace of play," says Schneider, who runs a curated golf experience company in Southern California. The situation reached a boiling point when the increasingly belligerent bros decided to tee off their finished beer cans. They even started taking mulligans (golf-speak for second tries) when their empties didn't clear the tee box. "All the while, my foursome watched their drunken incompetence from just a few feet away," Schneider says.
