It's a shame that all residents who wish to golf don't take the Good Golf session offered by The Villages, although I am sure that many believe that Ready Golf doesn't apply to them. Case in Point: I play in Friday league on the executive courses. A few weeks ago, as our group was heading out, the ambassador stopped us and said that he hoped we had a lot to talk about that day. We looked at him quizzically, and he told us that there were 8 foursomes ahead of us (virtually the entire course) and they were playing 'worst ball'! Don't ask how how it is played, but we waited and waited and waited on every hole! The ambassador told us that he had no control over how people choose to play the game i.e., best ball, worst ball, etc. we suggested that he might want to bring this to the attention of the golf management.
The delay did not prevent us from enjoying the beautiful day, we just had to wait a little longer to get to lunch!
Life is (still) good!!!
