On Xmas morn, we golfed with a neighborhood group at Evans Prairie - 2 4somes for 18, 6 for 9. Got there at 9am. Short wait (we were told at the shack it was very busy earlier). The 4 some ahead of us (in our neighb group) had 2 20's relatives in their group, novice, and took a long time shooting etc but left after 4 holes so we moved along. The Ambassador came around to alert us to play quicker before but nothing much we could do.
My feeling - the Starter Shack folks should at least have a etiquette list for newbies and point it out - especially for those with very novice/new golfers...and should have a 2 or 3 swing limit after misses... (!!!) AND point out BEST BALL for those groups.
It was a lot of fun - we completed 9 in 2:16, and was great to take big hits as we almost always play Exec. As for course conditions after Xmas, I can only imagine the damage done...
