I nearly always have a foursome consisting of 3 other golf buddies. Occasionally only two of us show up and we are paired with another twosome. Starting with the tee-box, some want to play from other than we usually play. That's OK, we can go along with any of the boxes they choose and it gives us a chance to use different clubs. Then there is the decision of the order of who tees off - no real problem there except when they say someone "has the box"? Then there are the greens that we say, "it's a give me" and some insist on putting till in the hole - no problem except embarrassing when forced to make a 18 inch putt and miss. Then there is the 9th hole turn. We usually go straight to 10 and some want to snack and reload drinks. Only problem is possibly loosing your space and extending your overall time.
Don't get me wrong, I love meeting new fellow golfers and can be as flexible as anyone but just wondering if there is any set standard policies in this circumstance.
Someone suggested that we book a threesome and then just them when we get there that one didn't show.
