As I posted before: every 9 minutes a new group goes out onto the first tee. So its should take 9 minutes per hole, times 9 holes equals 81 minutes.
(1 Hour 21 minutes max per round).
No wonder we wait for the front groups to move on, some guys think its a 2 hour golf game!
Ideally but all it takes is one very slow group on the course to slow down the entire course. It normally tales anywhere from 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours to play a round when it is busy. Even playing with just a foursome with nobody in front of you will take over an hour and a half on most executive courses.. That is why they always have a few tee times they don't reserve during the day so they can catch up.
