Sorry Fumar, my observations are the exact opposite.
I play once or twice a day, walk and carry my bag. I am able, like other walkers, to take a straight line to location of all my shots. I played Oakleigh yesterday, and started walking as soon as everyone putted out on number 5. By the time the group in carts passed me, I was almost halfway to the next teebox and was the third to tee off by the time that I got to number 6.
The biggest reason, IMHO, for slow play is marking your ball when not necessary, NOT lining up YOUR putt while one of your playing partners is putting, and not playing ready golf. If you are closer to the hole and are ready to hit, and noone else is ready, go ahead and play. Same thing on the tee, there are no HONORS when playing ready golf.
