Our ready golf group took permanent tee time this year at Cog.. Big mistake.. don't repeat it.
Pace of play is ridiculous because they don't care. Instead of 4-4.5 hour rounds, 1, 2 or 3 face 5-6 hours on Sundays.. Pleeeeease.. and don't bother rangers, they have nothing to do but chat and fail to move along slow groups, especially non reserved fillers. Last week we had to quit before the2nd green since 1.5 holes took us 50 minutes, ( and we still didn't get to the 2nd green) They put us behind 4 some ( all 70-80 yr olds with rental clubs?) If your 4 some is thinking of joining permanent tee times next year, seriously rethink this mistake.. We are done with this experiment.
