Default SLOW PLAY and slow players.

If you play slowly, you slow down the golf course for the whole day for others behind you.

Slow play is hugely campaigned against by the entire world golf community. And rightly so in my opinon.

So if you are a new golfer and reading this, please keep up the pace because even very patient and truly kind veteran golfers will beome annoyed with you.
Pick up your ball after six attempts on any hole and continue on.
