Don't think anyone has mentioned the 1-3 days out available tee times (by phone or tee time online system). These change daily as people cancel. Try the system (by phone or online) at 10 or 11 at night.
Also, if one of you golfs by yourself, there are many open tee times, even in season, if you just show up at the courses and hang around for a short time (to fill in on the no-shows). Let the starters know and practice putting or find a shady spot and read a book for awhile.
Sometimes people will cancel day of play and I don't think that shows up on the tee time system (it might if the starter inputs it right away, but I'm not sure).
There are still groups who abuse the system (for instance, putting in a non-golfing spouse's id # for the 4th person if they only have a threesome). Some of these are not abusers - they think they'll find a 4th, but for some reason can't.
For your first week, call the courses for Exec. men's and ladies' days and get on the sub list - you will more than likely get called.
