The Villages lets anything go and that is what screws up pace of play.... singles especially. It should not be allowed unless going out for 9 holes in that "early" time between 7-730am.
Also, as we all know, the people who take 2-3 practice swing per shot and the ones who wait to look at their putt when it is their turn versus doing all of that while the other guy is putting.
Pace of play here pretty much sucks.... there is really NO reason why a 4-some cannot play in 4 hours (or less). CPO (of course) adds time. Anyway, my rant and it doesn't matter... just my 2 cents worth. Carry on~~~
I'm curious myself. How does a single play slower than a foursome? The only one I've seen is one playing three or four balls but that is rare. I have trouble keeping track of one!
