Occasionally, even with everyone being a priority member, the group might not get a tee time in the high season. So if you are hoping to be in a group, you better get the membership. We played as singles for awhile, but really enjoyed the social aspect of playing with the same people (in a group) once we started doing that. Men's and Ladies day are a wonderful opportunity to meet people, and often groups are formed based on these new friendships, or you might be invited to join a group. Enjoy!
