The Villages fills almost all tee times with foursomes so if you use the tee time system as a single golfer you will join and fill out a foursome. The people here are used to being joined by people that they do not know. It is a great way to meet people and many times people will say that they like to play on a given day and would you like to join them on that day.

Default You have just fallen in with a bunch of like minded folks.

This place is so filled with people who love to play golf!!!!!

I have heard, but it may be a rumor, that there are four people who live here who don't want to play golf, seven who don't have dogs and three ummm ...from the other side of the political aisle.

I am kidding you a little but the typical scenario is if you move into an established area, the guys will invite you to join their group. And if you move into a new area the guys will invite you to join their group.

In our village we have a ladies nine hole and eighteen hole on championship course. We have a ladies nine hole on executive courses, a gentleman's nine hole and a couples nine hole and three guys 18 hole championship groups. That is in a village of 53 houses. Golf is happening here in The Villages.

Kindly keep the pace of play and repair your ball marks and rake the traps. .

There is a Men's day on some executive courses most Tuesdays. The best advice I can give is to join The Villages.net to set up your tee times. Costs $8/mo and is so easy to use. Most of the time, my wife and I golf as a couple and meet people or golf with friends. We try to golf the 1 and 2 level courses and, on occassion, 3rd level. We're all in the same boat and are here for the time of our lives. Enjoy!!!
