Jerks are hard to find on an executive course. The game does not appeal to anyone that does not have a sense of humor about their own shortcomings. The people who get angry and frustrated give up on the game because it's no fun.

A couple of weeks ago I was paired up with someone who shot 3 under and his average was 2 under. The rest of us played bogie and bogie plus. He walked and carried.

It made no difference because we are all playing against the course and ourselves, 10 minutes per hole.

I think just about everyone looks up to the walkers. I've never slowed a group down by walking and I don't walk too fast. There are ways to position your bag to get a head start and carrying is faster that a pull cart.
