I guess that booking evening wave online is out of the question too?
As mentioned above, sometimes of the year you can book the evening wave online, but that doesn't really mean much, as they don't know what time the "last turn" will take place in real life.

When I said it sometimes depends on who your talk to it, the Pro Shop staff is supposed to have the information on the likely time the evening wave will start, but they don't always.

You may be told the "last turn is at 4:30", which is technically correct, but it's possible the Starter knows there's a group lagging 2 or 3 holes behind and he can fit you in before that group makes the turn.
