When my regular group wants to play fast, we use range balls. No hunting for balls, no going into back yards, etc.... Works great.
Or if a group behind is pressing, let them through. While they are taking their shots, borrow a couple of their clubs out of their bags. That will keep them busy for at least 20 mintues. Then you pass them as they are slowing up play
Or try stepping on their balls in the fairway as they pass through (golf balls that is).
Kidding above...not below:
I have also played 50 years, used to be very good, then I realized having fun and not keeping score is much more enjoyable. Oh yea, wear crummy clothes just to aggravate the self imaged so called professional hackers.
