Default VEGIS not USGA Standards

I looked at and subscribed to VEGIS last year. It's better than not having any rating system, but it is not supported by The Villages and not used in any official tournaments that I know of on executive courses. When I talked to the individual who runs VEGIS, he admitted that his course ratings were based on his "gut" feel as opposed to an objective form of measurement.
