Perhaps the most frustrating aspect of Village golf is slow play. There is no single fix. Here are four common sense actions for all golfers to help speed up play. (1). If you are the first to hole out, retrieve the pin immediately so you can replace it as soon as all players complete putting. (2) Instead of marking your ball, hole out second putts. (3). Immediately proceed to the next tee before you write down the score of the previous hole. (4). Play "ready up" golf.

Everyone has more fun when you play "ready up" golf. This includes keeping practice swings to one or none and allowing whoever is "ready" to immediately get off their seat and give the ball a ride.

OP, I agree with you 100%. Keep swinging....never give up.
