text: You speaking of actual TRASH, or did you mean trash talk??\n\nTrash talk works by pissing off the opposing player...yo mama jokes, etc.\n\nAs for trash itself, I can tell you that nothing bothers me more when Im out playing golf than to have to pick up some a*sholes beer cans...so yes, trash on the course affects my game. It makes me seeth with anger. I pay alot of money to play on a nice course, and expect to not have to pick up someone else trash while out walking through a beautifully manicured fairway.
