What??? So.....somebody using a computer to log on for a tee time, when some old fella who doesn't use a computer (yes, they are out there) is selfish and arrogant? Are you against a new driver because you can hit it 20yds (possibly 50 miles) further? The world moves on....whether I like it or not.
Anyway, that's how I read it.
Though , from the comments on here, it seems unlikely. There may be a reluctance to admit using one, but I also believe that some forummers couldn’t resist talking about it.
How do you feel about the group where all 4 people try and grab a time slot, block 4 tee times then message each other and cancel 3 of the bookings 5-10 mins later?
What about the guys that organise themselves to have 4 all go for a tee time ?
There's a clear difference between what you are suggesting and what @KenL is objecting to. If you can't see that..........

That’s why a lot of older golfers are against the relentless March of technology over traditions !
Will be honest and it's really hacked me off this year . When we've had annual leave and been unable to book a time anywhere near what we would like as members are able to do this and also book guests in weeks in advance to get the slot they want and then cancelling the guests on the day. Club know about it and do nothing. Another reason we are leaving.
No , we can book guests in weeks in advance and don't pay until the day.
Like you, 10 or 11 is prime time enough for me
Not sure it’s that clear.There's a clear difference between what you are suggesting and what @KenL is objecting to. If you can't see that..........
Auto fill doesn't fill in BRS, that doesn't make you faster. The query is whether it's unfair to use a bit of tech that is only available to a small few to effectively cheat the system or have everyone on a level playing field.Not sure it’s that clear.
You probably have autofill on your phone or browser? Knows to fill in your name or address into the appropriate boxes on internet forms to save time?
Use that on BRS or IG and you’re using a script to input data more rapidly - the behaviour that Ken finds so reprehensible. Shame on you! Scum!
Seems like a case of sour grapes really. If the people that object were silently quicker than less technologically savvy competitors who struggled to book a time because it takes them several minutes to fill in a simple internet form - maybe because their name doesn’t autofill - and so shut these less capable competitors out of their preferred tee times entirely - I’m sure they wouldn’t think they were doing anything wrong. Talk me through the difference?
