Garywt, I want to apologize for my previous comments to you. When I first read your post, I got the impression that you both were true beginners. Based on your recent post, I see that this is not the situation, and I apologize.
If you have read TOTV for a while, you will know that all of the courses can get very busy, especially during the 3 winter months. And the likelihood of not being pared up with someone else is remote during those prime time months. And I know we have all experienced a total new beginner who either keeps swinging & missing the ball, or someone who can only hit it a few feet and has another go at it. That is both frustrating for the other people who might be paired with them, or those groups that are behind. All of us Villagers must be a little more understanding of others. Both those who want to learn and have fun,, and those who are experienced and want the challenge of a good golf game without having to pay Championship rates or play a long course.
So go out and have fun. And remember, the worse score you can have on the level 1 course is probably a 54 (6 x 9 holes) and you can brag about shooting under your age at one of the Country Club restaurants.
