This practice of adding in a couple of foursomes into the wave is very disruptive to the players trying to complete their rounds, stop closing off a course in the PM and put 9 hole players on that course
You are 1,000 percent correct!!!!!! That happens all the time. There were several occasions when we waited for a half hour. It makes no sense. Maybe someone can tell me why they close nine? Your just putting more wear and tear on the others. Just makes no sense. Kind of like the “winter” rates through MAY!!!!!!!!
