He also told me that they are talking about eliminating or cutting back the 50% discount the Ambassadors get when they play golf. Any truth to that? I can tell you that the Executive course I live on is not taken care of like it was in the past. A big palm tree fell down in the wind last October, and all they did was cut it up. The 4' high stump its still sitting there.
Executive courses get lot of abuse, even after hours and after sunset you see traffic. I saw one guy practicing approach shots, 20 or so balls on the greens. I sure he repaired all the divots. They are spending lots of money replacing sand in sand traps and greens on some courses.
