One little exec. south of Brownwood won't cut it. Greed at our expense. Just sayin....

summerhill: Priority is strongest when all four players are priority.
then it loses its potency with 3 then 2 and lastly if you are the only player with priority of your foursome I question if it really mattered. If you are playing as a single it may alleviate some of this?
A priority guest has priority over a resident which never made sense to me.
So after 6 years of paying priority I gave it up.
Some residents will tell you that the championship courses are public, some will call them semi-private but I always wondered if a non-resident called a week ahead would the course tell them they had to wait to see the tee times list before committing to that request?
While I have played off campus again I wondered why I was traveling when the purpose for me moving here was to get into my cart and head to the village course of my choice.
for sure there is a built up demand for course play and the courses get played hard?
