Unless you are playing a game like wolf or something else that requires some thought and conversation that amount of time is ridiculous.
I step up, tee it, no practice swing and boom. 15 seconds maybe.
Par 5 second at Silver Rock. I smoked the drive. Hit what I thought was a really good looking hybrid to the green but never saw it finish.
As we are driving up I see it on the green. It looked really close. You know when that happens, the closer you get you realize it really isn't that...
Oh Man. I really gotta hand it Coca-Cola!
First Santa Claus then New Coke and now this.
The entire notion having to have an ace/hole-in-one/1 on a par 3 be "witnessed" to be valid is nothing more than a brilliant marketing campaign to sell more Coke to greens keepers.
The score of 1 need...
I play by the rules but as stated above nothing I do impedes pace of play. I can make 6 at the same speed as the guy I'm playing with making 3.

I do not disagree with one single letter of your statement.
That does not the change the fact that I consider this rule BAD. Which was my response to your initial question. Bad Rules? Like what?

I agree with PNF. Saftey first. People and property.
However, it should not be ruled under 27-1.
Not far. Purely.
Defined by a road.....etc.
Because someone proclaims it. e.g. your interstate scenario.
An yes, I understand the centerfield fence at Coor's Field differs from the one at Fenway Park. 90 feet, 10 feet floor to rim, again you get the idea. And it is the idea(prinicple)...
Correct. And yes. I'll explain why later.
Excellent transition. It brings me to :
#2 O.B. is arbitrary and most often, of course not always, someones opinion.
As opposed to:
Baseball field, Football field, Tennis court, Basketball court........You get the idea.
I don't have much time today(Have lots of running around to do, even hoping to hit a few balls ?⛳)
So I'll just get it started:
#1 What appears contradictory to me.
I'll start with a question.
What is generally considered the number one, utmost, supreme tenet in the game of golf?
So much...
