Our Pro Shop administers 6 courses. The default when booking a tee time is to first ask how many players, what time are you looking for, and do you have a course preference. Then you always try to fill the “gaps.” So if you are a twosome I am going to look for a tee time that already has one or two players in it. But I will look in the general area of your requested preferences. However, if you tell me that you are a good golfer I will look to stick you with others that I know are average or above. Besides hotel guests we also have a country club contingent of many members, so we know the CC members and how they play. On the other hand if you tell me that you or maybe you and your spouse are not great golfers I will look to put you on our most forgiving course and try to find a slot that is empty. It doesn’t mean you won’t eventually get paired up but at least you have a chance of playing alone. If you are in that situation you can always ask when you check in if your tee time is still just you and your partner. If it’s not we will look for another course or time that is empty and move you there. Overall the more info that you give us the easier it is for us to accommodate you.
Also, if you aren’t a terrible golfer, is it okay to ask if you are playing solo to be paired with an okay group?
Is that frowned upon?
