Pace of Play – Important for Everyone

Who wants to play a 5 hour round of golf? Who likes to wait for 5 minutes on every tee box for the group ahead to clear the fairway?

NOT METRO SENIORS PLAYERS!!! And our golf course partners don’t like it either.

WE DO MEASURE PACE – SLOW PLAY IS MONITORED – CLICK HERE

Over many years the most frequent complaint from members and courses is Pace of Play.

Your Officer and Board of Governors have made many changes in rules and operations over the last several years. You – our members – have also accepted the challenge to “Pick up the Pace” with Ready Golf and a great attitude to help everyone.

Now our starting tee foursomes frequently finish in 3 3/4 to 4 hours. Almost all tee groups have shown that they can finish in less than 4 1/2 hours. Our partner courses have noticed and are happy to have us on their schedule.

So why all the CONTINUING interest?

Every year, we have new members. Some members are getting more “senior”. We can be “forgetful”. Little reminders, nudges can help.

More important, it only takes one SLOW tee group to cause HUGE delays!

One group falling behind by only 1 minute per hole would come in about 25 minutes behind the group ahead. A gap of two empty holes!

Worse still – this slowdown would delay EVERYONE behind by at least 20 to 30 minutes. From 40 to 100 following players could have a miserable round approaching 5 hours or more.

WORTHY OF REPEATING – If your group is slow by 20 minutes, you just wasted somewhere between 200 to 400 MANHOURS of your fellow members time in delays.
