I've belonged to a private club for 30 years, we have a board of governors and membership meetings with voting.
There are many semi-private clubs in the area, they are all OWNED by some entity or person, and the "members" get no say or vote whatsoever. Some have lockers and showers, some don't. Some have club storage, some have tournaments like a member-guest

Are you a priority member? If so, you must believe you are wasting your money to get the same product the general public gets
If not, good luck with peak season tee times vis a vis the MEMBERS of these SEMI-PRIVATE CLUBS. Oh, and no swimming or tennis for you, as you pay the full resident price for golf

That being said, we can agree to disagree, and just enjoy golf year round
It's a prepaid discount card that costs $550.

If half the time it saves you $10 and the other half $15 you need to play [550/12.50] 44 times a year to break even. If you play Evens Prairie all year round your golf bill for 44 rounds would be 11x31 11x37 11x26 11x31 = 1375 + 550= 1925

If you play twice a week your total golf bill is 104 - 44 =60 rounds at an average of 31 =1800/yr plus 1925

So for $3725 you play twice a week.

It's not for me at this time. If I was tearing up the execs I might think differently. I want to play 9 holes or more in the afternoon after the wave.

When is the wave? Playing in the summer is practically free at 5pm.
