The Return of the Four Hour Round
From: Larry Janis, the weekend golfer
We recently read The Return of the Four Hour Round. If you are like most weekend golfers you find time to be very precious and spending six hours playing a round of golf to be a day killer.
Almost six hours, that is what it has been taking to play 18 holes of golf. If you are not the first group off the tee you are going to wait. It just seems to be the way it is. Well, I can not or will not keep spending all day to play a round of golf.
I intend to play more efficiently and with more enjoyment. By following the steps laid out by Patrick I expect to have a more enjoyable day and also expect to have played better with a lower score.
