I’m counting you’ve ever admitted to being wrong about anything
I just try really hard to avoid being wrong so I don’t get reminded more than twice a day about that time 7 months ago.

Slow play is the worst part of golf these days. People should be able to play 18 in a cart in 3 hours or less. Courses should manage this better.

I agree.. but 2 people.. not 4..
My daughter and I play a lot just the 2 of us and play pretty quickly.. And playing our home course in under 3 hours is doable with no one in front of us.. But a group of 4 isn't doing a sub 3 hour round.. Fastest round with 4 in two carts i've ever played with has been 3hrs and about 20-25 minutes

Agree that 4 should be able to do 18 in a cart in under 4. We would play 4 at a local country club in 3.5 usually. I can usually walk 18 in 3 plus or minus with a push cart. Great exercise.

Yeah I gotta look into get a push cart.. Daughter has one for School matches and tournaments... I should get one b/c we tend to play 9 after she gets out of school a lot and the extra exercise would be nice.. As well as those cart path only days.. have a pushcart has got to speed those rounds up as well

This. You just gotta live and let live. Golf is a hobby. We're not counting on it to put a roof over our heads or feed our kids. It should be a stress reliever, not a stress creator.

If the "fast" guys were near the green on 14 and the "slow" guys were near the tee box on 13 when they crossed paths again, that's a ridiculous amount of space between two groups on a busy day.
Really though it shouldn't be hard to find the bottleneck if there's a competent ranger out there. I really wish these courses would monitor the pace of play better and when there's a significant gap starting to grow on the course, they need to have the slow group pick up their balls and head to the next tee box after 1 warning. If it happens again after that, they get removed from the course and get a raincheck for their remaining holes. Telling golfers who are following the rules and being considerate to just skip holes that they paid for is the wrong answer.
