Be ready to hit when it is your turn.
Watch all balls until they stop rolling to avoid lengthy searches.
Use a fixed object as a reference point.
All players should go directly to their own ball and play when ready.
If you do fall behind, let faster groups play through.
Continue putting until holed out unless you are standing on someone's putting line.
Remember, by keeping pace you make the game more enjoyable for everyone!!
