None of us are Tiger, so it is also not necessary to observe your putt from all sides of the green before hitting your ball. If you comply with the above the groups behind you will love you :bigthumbsup:
Well said. One of my main concerns is that I will slow down the play of others, causing them to not enjoy their game. I'll have to ckeck out how busy the courses are when I visit.
