Yes, I would go ahead and play. If someone tells you to leave, then you can leave.
We have had different experiences with the people in the starter shack. Once we went to Volusia and asked if we could play after the last scheduled group tees off. The starter said No, so we went over to Roosevelt and the starter said we could play.
Once we went to Marshview and the only group on the entire course was a guy on #10 giving a lesson to a group. The starter said we could follow that group. We asked if we could start on #1 because the group would probably be slow. She said No, so we played #10 and then skipped over to #2. She walked out to us and told us to follow behind the guy giving the lesson, who was now approaching #12.
So we walked over to #12 and the guy giving the lesson, who seemed to be a more experienced employee, was surprised the starter was being so fussy. Anyway, we skipped #12 and went to #13 and had a good round.
The moral is that each starter is different and we do what they say. If they do not say anything or if they are not there, we do what seems reasonable.
