Golf Random Irritations

Have you checked that? I’ve got the same email, but I can’t see anywhere that is says I must take option 1 or 2.

Looks to me like you choose neither and just carry on.🤷‍♂️
You could right but I'd have thought they'd have included that as an option....
The email just gives the 2 options.....an even bigger PITA.... :mad:

I took out a 3 year membership that doesn’t run out until Oct 28 and there’s no mention of that stopping.

I’ll ignore it and see what happens.😵‍💫
 
Again though, no comment about how it improves scores or ability to hit a good shot.

It’s all about the obsession with slow play.🤷‍♂️

Obviously 40 x 3 Balls (120 players) would be quicker than 40 x 4 Balls (160 players) as you’ve got 40 extra players on the course.

The big difference was the tee times would need to be extended by 1hr 50 minutes to get the 160 players around in 3 Balls.

Sticking with 120 entering the comp.

Comp starts at 07:00hrs - 40 x 3 Ball slots at 10 min intervals last tee off is 13:30 - Avg 3:30 round, finish time approx 5pm

Comp starts at 07:00hrs - 30 x 4 Ball slots at 10 min intervals last tee off is 11:50, Avg 4:00 round, finish time approx 4pm.

I’m sure if the study proving 3Ball is better is on here, I’ll let you provide the link.👍🏻

Sorry I made a typo in my post which was confusing.

40 x 3 ball slots can go off 8 min intervals and last group finishes earlier.

30 x 4 ball slots will back up the course eventually off 8 minute intervals, you probably need 10 as you suggested and even then need some starting gaps to ease inevitable congestion.

There was some analysis from the US on this, but I don’t care enough to look for it. I actually don’t know why I’m posting this I’m happy to move on 😂
