I have always found most people who play golf....
regularly, are aware of whether they are holding up or not. I know there are some who just don't care.
Since I am a casual golfer, and probably an average player for my age (70+), i play to have fun...enjoy the company...enjoy being out doors.
I always find continual discussions about pace of play to be rather inconsistent with any of the above. The club we belonged to in SC was so into pace of play one had to let the starter know when you finished at 18....then there were the usual harangs in the monthly bulletin...the constant reminders about pace of play.....I never knew it was a timed event sport.
If that is what good golfers focus on I am glad to be in the majority being an average golfer, retired and enjoying not being timed.
