Being I'm alone any particular courses I should gravitate toward playing given conditions and my desire to meet people. How much in advance do I need to sign up to paired with others. I won't have my pass until I arrive so I don't think I can go into the system to get a Tee time. Also not being used to the summer Florida heat what is best time to play, early morning or late afternoon. What time do tine courses open and close?
I'm used to CT not Florida although last week it was 102 degrees in Hartford and 93 in TV. I was telling everyone that I was going to TV to cool down. Looking forward to meeting some of you.

Best courses to play as of now are Palmer, Nancy Lopez, Glenview and Havana in my opinion. I would stay away from Cane Garden Hibiscus course and Hacienda Hills.Haven't played Orange Blossom or Tierra Del Sol in a few weeks so I can't comment on them. As far as playing time, most like the early morning T times but I prefer the sfternoons . It may just be me but the early morning hours seem more humid than the afternoon hours.
Hope this helps and enjoy yourself.
