Those getting out on this course 10 am usually face a 6 hour round. I wouldnt play if I were facing that especially when Toga opens.

Yes, you are fortunate. Those 5-6 hour weekend rounds are no fun,havenot done it for years,but others have little choice.

Then there is the topic of rangers and keeping up the pace of play. how many courses now have aggressive rules to keep things moving ?

Some people should not be out on a course that iss too hard for them, but should be on 9 holers, or on pitch and putt courses, this is a big reason for slow play and 6 hour rounds. Guys hear about courses and want to play but donot have the ability to play and don't care, and the courses don't say or do anything to keep up play.,
