If it takes a group 5 hours to play 18, what does it matter if they start 15 minutes after the group in front of them, or 7 minutes?
If you're referring to my post:
I'm referring to outside groups in the off season where they are the only ones on the course, and they are taking pictures, stopping at the halfway house etc. looking for balls etc.
They wouldn't be on the course on a day that was even remotely busy, or a day where tee times are even assigned.
They lose track of time because there is no one behind or in front for a reference.
It happens and I'm certainly not going to push a group around on an empty course.
But then I forgot, everybody on GCA plays sub 4 hour 4 balls.....
except in GCA outings
...on courses that occupy 1/2 the acreage of the course I'm referring to.
