Hi, I just made the transistion myself and trust me, youll get used to it in no time. Here are a few tips that i suggest... - Start off on an executive or par 3 course, it would be easier to learn and get the feel of playing on a course - Dont mark your scorecard untill the next hole (So you dont hold up people behind you) - There are usually markers that show you the area to tee off - You advance when your done playing the hole basically. If there are people ahead of you, just go up to the next hole and wait. - Make sure you dont become a disturbance Thats pretty much it, just go and have fun and dont worry, im only 15 and starting and i have a blast going. It may seem weird at first buts its fine, so dont worry
