Do the math, 250 *7000 = $1.75 million. That’s 23,000 rounds at $75 each
Lets look at you logic.

"County Clubs" are closing all over the US.

Part of the promise of buying here ALL residents would be members of the Championship Courses

A super busy Championship course in the villages does over 100000 rounds per year, @ lets say $30.00 per round, hmmmmm 3, 000,000!

They don't have to worry about the staffing and running the restaurant.

And WHY would they change the MODEL that works and has worked

HMMMMM, to make maybe 250 golfers privileged? And only can play that course?

Think about it!
