Sometimes there are people who arrive after us and sometimes there are not. Often, even close to closing time, we can arrive at a course and get on. There's no waiting. The evenings in the summer are our preference to golf.
I usually do the same thing. Sometimes there is very people out on the course at that time of the day and then other days it's like a madhouse and everybody comes out. I would prefer the starters and ambassadors did stay on course till dark. The only trouble I've seen is by the time some people get to the 7th hole they lose their sense of urgency and could care less other people are waiting behind them.
