My Sunday group has been playing at a great pace. Two weeks ago we were a threesome and finished a par 71 course in 2 1/2 hours. We were first off. No one in front of us. It was only about 6300 yards. Everyone was playing pretty well. Damn that was great. Last Sunday we played a little longer course with all four present. 3 1/2 hours works for me as well.

      My Saturday group is slower. I enjoy these guys as well, but it's different game all together.They use mulligans (Sunday group doesn't) They are pretty liberal with the rules in general.  I tried to "enlighten " them a few times  without coming across too stodgy  but no luck. I guess I'll just enjoy the day and not rock the boat. I look at it as a practice round. They say "there's waiting in golf". I'm not impatient and bide my time while waiting for my shot however the faster pace is preferable
