Each tee off time is 9 minutes apart.

This means you will finish in an hour and a half. Ask yourself if you maintain that pace and what you can do maintain that pace.

I'm a retired high school coach who has coached many beginners and here are my suggestions to move along, enjoy your company and improve.

1]hit from the tees where you can reach the green on a par three. if you don't reach the drop zone move the ball to the dop zone
2]if you are sharing a cart, drop off the player with the worse shot and let them walk to the green and drive to your shot
3]after 4 shots pick up the ball and give yourself a 4

The game should be fun, social and involve a little bit of walking [when possible or practical]

The best Village golfer on the executive courses is a little better then a beginner compared to pros. Make the game fast and fun by forgetting the rules.
