Fits Of Anger

Players that throw clubs or damage golf courses (slamming the putterhead into the green or taking a huge divot without hitting the shot) should be banned.  I’m not saying that players don’t have the right to get mad at themselves, of course they do but infringing on the rights of others to enjoy the game, should not be tolerated.
