I don't know anything about Executive Golf (so my answer isn't related to Amenity Fees), but up until this year, there was only (1) 18 hole golf course located in what most folks consider the "south". Now there are 2. The quality of the 2 courses in the south, don't compare with the other 18 or 27 hole courses.

I get it. When the expansion to the south was going on, the golf business was in the toilet. The Developer surely saw the writing on the wall and cut back on golf course investment ... everyone did. Covid changed the world of golf.

To suggest the addition of 30,000+ homes hasn't affected access to existing golf courses, defies logic.
Actually Covid helped golf as it is an outdoor activity. This could be short term and only time will tell the long term affects. Golf can be very frustrating
