I hope you reconsider. Golf is fun. Remember this thread concerns play on the championship courses. While some of the comments may also apply to the executive courses, those courses are designed to have varying degrees of difficulty, so a beginner can play a course with fewer hazards and/or length so they can enjoy the experience. As their capabilities improve, they can try harder and harder courses while still enjoying the game. Please attend the Good Golf School put on by TV. It will give you a lot of information about golf here and many tips on how to maximize your enjoyment without worrying about your effect on the pace of play.
