Couldn’t even cut any corners to make shorter distance. Finally get to the T box and the couple had already hit four shots off the tee. We all chuckled after we caught our breath and I made note of that course. lol
if the time-par listed on the card doesn't allow for a brisk walker to keep pace, then that's poor design, not the walker's fault.
Especially if they are going to make you pay a trail fee for using the cart.
