That said, I think the smart move is to do a ride along being respectful of golf course rules (golf cart path, 90 degree rule, avoiding wet areas, and keeping appropriate distance from greens, etc), something many of the golfers themselves ignore. And I would also talk to the Golf Pro at the respective courses and let them know when you are going to do this. Unless there is a reason to do early morning, I'd suggest afternoon when the numbers are much less than in the morning wave. That way, you can get the pictures you want w/o "interfering" with people playing. Lastly, while in many instances "forgiveness is easier than permission" in this case I suggest "permission" is the better choice. Just talk to the PRO. I bet you can get permission and schedule a T Time that will meet both your needs and avoid the "keep off the course" . Enough said

Thank you for the kind words.
One take away I am finding from this thread is I should go take the "golfing course" offered so I am aware of all the rules.
My wife and I are planning to start golfing sometime (soon?) but the past year has been disruptive...
