I "kind of" walk the champs. I put my clubs in someone's cart and take the clubs I need to finish the hole. If there is a very long walk from green to tee, or clubhouse, I jump in the cart. These courses are mostly designed to make course view building lots. [off topic but Belle Glade may be the exception]
Back home---on public courses I wouldn't do that for 2 reasons:
1] it's a short walk from greens to tees
2] to rent a cart and than use it just carry my clubs is a waste of money
I wish more people would walk the champs and take turns with the cart AKA ready golf. You can really move fast that way.
I have never held up anyone walking on an exec course. The only hole that I lag behind is 9 on Mangrove. Nine is an easy hole and people finish it quickly. Although some do spend a bit of time shaking hands and moving items to and from the bag. But by hole nine, who cares? And sometimes from 1 to 2 on palmetto but after that it's very easy to close any gap because people slow down on the par 4's.
