I've played with a lot of people that know how to observe proper etiquette and we always have had a lot of fun. In between shots, after a great shot or a poor shot. Walking up to the green. Before teeing off. There is plenty of time to have fun while playing golf.
In an eighteen hole the amount of time that someone is actually preparing to hit or hitting the ball is about 22 minutes. A foursome is on the golf course for about four hours or more. That 88 minutes or an hour and 28 minutes that the group is actually actively engage in playing golf. The rest of the time is spent walking or riding to the ball. That's two and a half hours to have fun versus an hour and a half to be quiet, courteous and respectful of others.
Plenty of time to have fun.
