There are plenty of courses outside this venue that are reasonable, so I guess that's where I'll continue to find a game, because as a resident here I just can't see paying snowbird rates.
So have you called GMS yet to find out the answer to your whining and complaining? Didn't think so.

Until you do that, continue to throw the clubs in your vehicle, use your time, gas and wear on your vehicle to drive to a course outside the bubble; by doing that, it will open up another tee time for those of us who will support our courses.
