The missus and I are normally afternoon golfers for the simple reason that there's less people about and specifically less of the 'must reach the turn in an hour, it's my course, our of my way vagabond' types.
For a combination of reasons the only game we can get this weekend is Saturday 9.10 am tee off and were dreading it
The slots are eight minutes wide so if we duff so much as a one shot were going to be spending a lot of time waving tutting golfers through. With both of us less than perfect it's not something were looking forward to.
Our best hope is that we get a slow four ball behind us but the chances are well get one in front of us with 38 groups of Formula 1 speed golfers behind us.
The only other strategy we have is that the first sign of trouble and well call it a day and cut our losses. Personally, I can't concentrate too well when ive got someone standing 100 yards away with their hands on their hips , shaking their head while I try and convert a putt.
We normally play a round in about 3 and a half hours.
This all stems back from being a member of a busy 9 hole 18 tee track a while back where it was just impossible to relax and enjoy. The scars remain
Is it only us that find this unnerving or it is the sort of typical playing conditions you might expect if your a morning player and don't give it a thought?
Any advice?
