T times too close together.....not likely....the T times are pre-scheduled (usually 9-10 minutes apart) by the T time system......the individual course cannot change those times.

Some back-ups can be caused by an inattentive starter.....if the starter does not send the next group out at the right time (i.e. sends it out early) that can create a back up on the course. Likewise, golfers must be on time as well....i have seen many times a golf group, after the starter has told them its ok to T off....just stand around on the T, BSing and as a result they T off late....that then backs up everything in back of them

Slow play is an ongoing/niver ending problem....especially this time of year....and as much as people dislike it.....i think its here to stay.
