This is so hard sometimes for beginners to understand. But I was taught as a beginner, and know from playing with many beginners, that beginners can keep the pace of play and not only enjoy the game but make it enjoyable for all on the course. I hope all folks new to the game take the beginning golf lessons offered. Then no one will growl at them under their breath for slowing down the course for the entire day.
