I completely respect that many groups are more relaxed, but I’m simply looking for like-minded players who enjoy the game as it's written. If such a group exists, I’d really appreciate any pointers or contacts.

Thanks in advance!
Good first post.
What makes you think those groups don’t exist? It’s the largest golf community in the world, there are golf groups that run the gamut.
If you are a high handicap, and your playing script rules, your round of golf is too long, you won’t find any golf group.
