Cameron O'Neal explains how to be more efficient on the golf course to improve pace of play and overall results. He highlights key habits like limiting lost ball searches, picking up at double par, and preparing equipment before reaching the green.
Step up and hit the ball when it is your turn instead of overthinking the shot.
Don't spend more than a few moments looking for balls hit deep into inaccessible woods; take a drop instead.
Beginners should pick up their ball and move to the next hole once they reach double par (e.g., 8 strokes on a par 4).
Bring both your wedge and putter when walking from the cart to the green to avoid extra trips.
Wait until you reach the next tee box to record your scores to keep the green clear for the group behind you.
