What a great idea. The thing I never really cared much for about during golf, yes I'm impatient, is having to slow down and wait for people playing ahead of me. Now my wait is over as long as I keep moving. Milwaukee County Parks introduces “Fast Paced Fridays” at Oakwood Golf course, 3600 W. Oakwood Rd. in Franklin. Oakwood is a gold level course and at 6,975 yards is the longest of all 15 county golf courses. Each week participants who keep the pace will also have a chance to win a pair of Brewers tickets. The purpose is to increase the pace of play so you can enjoy 18 holes of golf in less than 3 hours and 45 minutes. It is not meant to rush people into an uncomfortable level of play, rather to ensure that a Friday golf game can be enjoyed at a systematic pace. Try it, I think you'll like it.
