You may think that because there is a whole hole open in front of the group ahead of you. There are a lot of things to consider!
What time did that group start? Many times the groups ahead of them might be faster or got out earlier than their allotted tee times. It is the ambassadors job to monitor pace of play. They have a time chart to go by and even though there is a hole open in front if they are on or even close to the pace of play schedule, they are on time.
Perhaps your group is made up of better golfers. Remember not everyone here in The Villages has a 10 or under handicap. Most of the players on the Executive Trail are either beginners or have a higher handicap. REMEMBER handicap has nothing to do with who gets to play golf here in The Villages!

Please re-read my comment. I said
two holes were open and I saw it from the beginning. You weren't there, I was. The ambassadors do a couple of things well and that is provide water and sand, fix divots on the tee boxes, and pick up broken tees. As far as moving play along they are worthless. Like you said. they don't have a lot of power. Tough job? I don't think so. They are out for a paid afternoon ride IMO. Sorry, but I call it as I see it.
