The Bandits, sometimes known as the "Old
Bastards", are a loose knit group of golf enthusiasts who, six days
a week, drag themselves out of bed in order to knock a little white ball
around the course at Jupiter Dunes, Jupiter, FL. Ability has little
to do with the actual play, most come out just to have a good time and
to harass the other members of the fraternity. Handicaps range from
near par players to, well....., you don't really want to know.
Players are broken up into foursomes and
head out each day at 7:30 AM sharp. Play usually finishes up around
10:30 AM at which time it's time to pay the piper. Sad but true -
this is no bunch of pansies, they play for big stakes. A nickle a
mark, 10 cents for best front and back nine and a whopping 25 cents for
best total - why, a bad day can cost you a buck or so!
