If there is no on it, you are playing to slow. Speed up by skipping the tee off. Drive up to the hole, drop a ball on the green, put out, and catch up. If there is still no one on the hole ahead, skip the hole completely. We all thank you for being considerate.
We are new to golf, thanks for the guidelines. We already read if we can’t sink it in 6 strokes take the 6 and be on our way. We are only playing level 1 courses and won’t step up for a while. My wife and I love the huge holes on the greens, doesn’t mean it’s easy but it sure beats the smaller holes for a beginner.
