Question for THP'ers …. on long par 3's, do you wave up the group & allow them to hit to the green before you start to putt? I saw this today on a par 3 that seriously backed up .… 4 groups on one hole. Two waiting on the tee box, one down in the hollow short of the green & one on the green. There are actually signs on the tee box that say "Please wave following group up as you reach the green." Now the hole is pretty long … about 225 from the back tee. So the majority of players fail to reach the green. I watched all the groups in front of me all miss the green.
So my real question is does waving up the group on long par 3's actually speed up play or not? At this particular course, I don't think so .... It just created a bottleneck. So I didn't see the need.
Thoughts THP'ers?
