Question

Is it rude to listen to your ipod at the driving range?

Answer 1

No, as long as it isn't turned up so loud that other people can hear it.

Answer 2

I agree with yager19 and if you are by yourself not with a group or a friend.

Answer 3

not at all. i do it all the time. it is a good way to keep you focused and relaxed while preparing to play or just to hit balls.  

Answer 4

No but make sure no one is being bothered by it

Answer 5

no as long as it aint botherin anyone else

Answer 6

Nope, just as long as you can hear safety warnings.

Answer 7

Not only is it okay, but it is encouraged. In fact you can even listen to your Ipod while on the course. But use the headphones.

The music helps with your rythm and people say they hit better. However, I have not tried this out to see. Probably because I don't own an Ipod or Mp3 player.

Answer 8

i actually like to this before a tournament or when i'm just practicing. It helps me relax and focus on the round ahead. I strike the ball, and i listen to music, and then i am relaxed on the first tee. It helps, but i dont think its rude, unless yours is very loud and its bugging everyone else, or if someone is trying to talk to you.  

Answer 9

Not at all; just don't sing.  If i'm playing by myself I'll usually listen to my mp3 player.

One hint- tuck the cord under your top; I saw a guy catch the cord in his backswing and it ripped the earbud out of his ear.

Answer 11

Answer 12

Only if you're SINGING ALONG with the music.

Answer 13

Not at all.  My daughter wears hers all the time on the range.  She practices for a longer time when she has her ipod on.  However, I have told her to pull out the earplugs if someone comes up to talk with her.  Ignoring someone would be rude.
