So, the book is on the way, thanks to Darkfrog, but what about when you start way behind a group and catch up? Should I just play slower? 
I played in a 3-some today and we played through another 3 at the tune. Course is wide open in front of us. By 13, we catch another 3, and they take 15 minutes to play a 125-yard par 3 with no really hazard. That kind of stuff ruins my day. You lose all flow and rhythm. What are you supposed to do?

Beat them up, maybe? 🙂

The book isn't really about this kind of stuff, as you'll see.

Come to think of it, I have witnessed a fist fight on the course caused by slow play. It was a few holes ahead in different groups. 
This was a few holes after the slow play afforded a few guys the opportunity to share some drugs during the wait time, lol. 
That’s what you get for booking a single in NJ and getting paired up, haha.

Good. You'll see he feels strongly it's not about the absolute time, but the "flow."
