Pace of play issues used to cause me to not enjoy some rounds. A slow day was frustrating and was just not fun. While pace of play is a larger issue how it affected me... is my issue. So, now either as single or with buddies I get one of the first 3 tee times in the mornings on the 3-4 courses that we like to play. Have only 42 rounds in Ottawa so far this year, but we've only played one round later than 7:18 am. Know that might not work for everyone but it does work for us.
