Default New to golf doesn't have to mean "slow"

Bob45 - that was good advice above, from the former caddie. If you start to hold up others, just pick up your ball and move on. The idea of playing a "best ball" with your spouse is good too.

And don't agonize and pray over every shot for 3 minutes like some golfers, good or bad, do, like their lives are depending on it. Sometimes new golfers hear so many criteria like "keep your head down" etc. that they're processing everything except "just hit the ball".

It's supposed to be fun, and you'll have fun when you hit some shots that sail high and straight toward the pin.
