I find hitting on the range more intimidating than playing--too many people looking at me and judging. I'm sure that's due in large part to being left-handed. I like to go with someone I know, so we can get bays facing each other, and I don't have some stranger watching me and giving me gratuitous advice.

On the other hand, it can be very reassuring to stand back for a few minutes and watch where other folks are hitting their balls. There is ALWAYS someone worse than you.

Minus the lefty part I feel the exact same way! I always feel like people are watching me when I am at the range, and I am always bound to hit a few shots so far to the right that I am afraid I will take out the person next to me. However, like you said I do like to step back for a minute and find one (all I need is one) person who is worse than I am and you are correct there usually is one.

I find the course to just be more rewarding and challenging all at the same time. I enjoying hitting from different lies and trying out different shots and picking a real target instead of a floating island like my course has.
