Actually the answer is no all the time with some exceptions. Only in summer, when demand is lower, do they allow limited 18 hole requests on some courses as cited above. Theory is that there is less demand for tee times during the summer, especially afternoons.

A lot of folks don't know the jargon of the golf scheduling process. Seven days prior to your target day, you can make a "Request". As long as there is a Request, you can make any change you'd like, e.g., desired times, courses, substitute players. An individual cannot be on two Requests for the same day. Three days before the target, tee times are assigned and the Request becomes a "Reservation". During that time, you can still substitute players or cancel but you cannot change where or when. At midnight of the target date, everything is locked in and you cannot make changes.

A catch/feature in the system is that once a date is in Reservation status, you can look at what tee times are open and can Reserve them directly. And an individual can be on multiple Reservations.
