My only objection to the priority membership is inclusion of the executive course trail fee. When I play executives, I walk, so I'm being charged an additional $142 for which I receive no benefit.
The trail fee also allows you to use your cart on the Championship Courses. Otherwise, you would have to rent a cart at a substantial cost. Of course, obtaining a priority membership (from an economic point) depends on how many rounds you play...... It is fairly easy to figure based on your individual situation. If money is no object then you just pay and enjoy the convenience and benefits of your priority membership regardless of the cost/benefit analysis based on just economics. FORE!
