Most of these players are quite mobile.

You have shorter course options. If you can't walk the ones that you play now, even without having to carry your bag, maybe it is time to start playing shorter courses.

I have not yet restarted playing golf, but it sure sucked when I did play, to be walking and waiting behind even 2 cart four ball matches. Walking straight to your ball is usually faster than riding to someone else's ball, then your ball.
