Slow Players Are Inconsiderate...An Experiment
There is no doubt that people who believe it is their right to play at any pace they want to are inconsiderate of others on the course. A five hour round, last week at Mallory, is not acceptable. New golfers should follow the advice of more experienced players regarding when they should pick up and move along.
A good experiment would be for the Villages be to designate one course as one where pace of play would be ridgidly enforced. Any group behind would move ahead to where they should be when instructed by an ambassador. Slow players would avoid that course and those who enjoyed maintaining pace would desire playing at that course.
One course could also be designated as one where pace of play will not be enforced at all. Slow players could choose that course and play as slow as they wanted.
I wonder what course would be more popular?
