My wife and I are fairly new to golf. We only play the executive courses, usually with friends. Several times we have had golfers behind us waiting on us when we are only taking 9 or 10 minutes per hole. One group even hollered at us to hurry. When we got to the next tee, we still had to wait a minute or so for the ones ahead of us. It ruined the round for us to have people pushing from behind like that when we weren't really slow. My point is that if you are that good and that fast, what are you doing on an executive course fussing at those who are playing at an acceptable pace and staying away from the championship courses until they get better? And if you want to play an executive course, expect those ahead of you to perhaps be a bit slower.
