“Clack”
“Oh good shot!”
Gentle applause.
Grey below the waist, white above, hair one or the other, those are the rules.
The house I grew up in is just up the road from a bowling green so I am very familiar with the fondness retired folk have for rolling their balls gently across perfect lawns.
It's incredibly genteel.
