The initial comment has only one inaccuracy as it berates certain ladies groups
The pace of golf is defined by using the ready golf procedure and applies to everyone
I find it frustrating following a group playing from black where their first shot seldom passes the front tee, and continuing until they putt out
Memory fails me sometimes but I took an intro to golf which included the ready golf system which included - after twice the number of shots v par you left the hole
you played when safe to do so and when you were ready, not always
in true golf order
most often a lost ball is in an area where you are best not advised to go -
either the bushes or lake
leave the green area before marking your card
I have seldom come across a handicapped golfer who causes delay and if there was just put up with it with a smile - one day we may be in that position ourselves
