Keep the 5:30 start time. Nature will take care of the end time, and will fix it in a week or two. Keep the raffle, too, it gives people something to stick around for and socialize.

I like the pairing method, drawing names out of a hat for partners. It took a little longer than the playing card method I'm used to seeing (all draw cards, black 2s are partners, playing against the red 2s) but it'll streamline itself as you guys become old hats at running the Shelton dubs.

They way you set it up where each group starts 2 minutes after getting to their starting hole, I thought that was pretty cool too. It must have been arranged well, because as far as I could tell my group was the only one on the course as we played. I could hear occasional distant chains, but it could have been my imagination.

I recommend starting without a straggler once or twice. If the latecomers see that you mean business about the start time, they will fix themselves.

Fun times, thanks guys!
