I do see a lot of difficulty getting tee times in the morning (between 9 and 12) for my large group (all residents and a typical average number of points of 2.5) on the executive courses between 466 and 44 during snowbird season. Pelican is the one exception. I don't normally include courses north of 466 in my requests so I can't comment on that. If I include the 5 executive courses south of 44 then I never see any issues during snowbird season. What generally happens is that my group plays either Pelican or the executive courses south of 44 during snowbird season. Outside of snowbird season, I am able to get tee times for my group on pretty much any executive course between 466 and 44. If I include all 20 executive courses between 466 and 44 in my requests outside of snowbird season, there are some courses that will be assigned more frequently, for example Pelican.
That's true I didn't specify executive courses earlier and didn't think about. I only know our scheduler, if you will, uses a 4 hour window and puts in at least 20 courses. I think down the road I'll start try doing a walk on which ever course I want to play as a single like around 3 or 4 o'clock. It doesn't matter who I get paired up with.
