Where I'm from in South Jersey I think the public courses would overbook. The private courses until 10 years ago had a female policy about when women could play. It was an unusual course where the tee off times were on schedule and you finished 18 holes in around 4 hours. Down here, more than likely you might go out before your scheduled time. I can't remember being stalled on the first tee, teeing off late because of slow play. Considering all the beginners, they must be doing something right.
I've never had a problem with starting late. If anything it seems lately we started out early and the starters have us on top group in front if us and by the time we reach the 6th hole we have a traffic jam.
