If you are new to the game don't get cought up on "golf rules". For example "golf rules" say that if you start out on the hardest tees, the black tees, you have to hit from the black tees for the entire round. You do need to pay attention to "golf etiquette". Etiquette is a social rule, like not holding up the line.
Go to any course, any rating and play from the tees comfortable for you. Etiquette dictates you don't spend any more than 8-10 minutes on any hole or you are holding up the line. After 8 minutes pick up the ball and go to the next hole if it's open.

Not just social as there is no penalty for not raking the sand trap you go in, or stepping on an opponents ball...etiquette is how you behave while playing and things you should not(or should-ie: tend the pin if you're the first to hole out)do.
As to your time limits...while you're idea may appeal to you it isn't realistic in any round of golf...9x8=72 and preferred playing time is 1.5 to 1.75hours....just try not to dawdle as best you can.
