I walk. So when my golf is bad at least the walk was good.
I carry a 50X optical zoom lense camera. So when the golf is slow I shoot water birds and can zoom in so they don't get spooked.
I try to get to know the others I'm paired up with. So when the golf is slow it turns into a blind date of sorts. And I enjoy meeting new people.
It's rare that I have a bad time playing the exec courses and it's rare that the rest of my foresome has a bad time too. They may get upset with themselves but the overwhelming majority are self-forgiving and laugh about it.
When it comes to golf, I tell people that for me TV is like a free buffet.
I play almost every day with strangers. I think less then 3 times a year I was paired up with someone I played with before. Of course I don't remember as much as I used to so take that for what it's worth.
