Then you get into the problem of guests---how do they qualify to play? My ex brother in law is head pro at a club in Mass.---he came down several times to play--did he need to go to school? And here's another Villages quirk----they only "comp" a visiting PGA pro once a year, after that, full price. I sure hope if Tiger decides he wants to come here often that he brings his wallet. Talk about cheaping out!
So it is a complicated issue. Like my father always aid, "You can't legislate morality"--or in this case golf etiquette. |
Easy to handle that. PGA players can be exempt and as for guests they would be playing with a member that'd keep them educated on course etiquette so they didn't lose privileges.
