The sad thing is the guy is a serious stick when he's sober. By the time we were at the 13th hole the poor bastage was drunk off his ass. All most got into a fight with his cart mate, then just stopped playing and started looking for the beer girl. Sorry for the rant but people should go to bars to get drunk, not the golf course.
I'm a 2 handicap and play a lot of golf sometimes sober but mostly with a beer and a cigar. We play golf by one rule "if you can't play drunk don't play". I usually play every Friday afternoon and start with a six pack sometimes that lasts all round, sometimes I'll switch to mixed drinks, sometimes I need another six pack. Our group (12-20 people) has it's own cart girl and they fight to be "our girl" because we have the most fun and tip well. We have never had anyone get too out of hand and never damage the course. We have a sober golfer for rides home (winner of the most money picks next weeks "winner") or My wife joins me for dinner and drives me home.

It sounds like you we paired with someone who doesn't resept the game or himself.

If you or anyone is ever in Mid-Missouri lmk and golf and cigars are on me (drinks also if you indulge).
