Huh? I know lot's of snowbirds who are single digit players who do pay priority since they don't get enough play in to make it break-even. I don't play much during the winter and actually prefer the spring/summer/fall golf due to lower rates and much lower crowds. Winter time I prefer off-campus. I'm not a beginner or have no clue about divots etc. (I hover around a 10 handicap). Not sure what your beef is. Priority is to get a better chance at tee times and it gives you a break on the green fees (more in winter, less in summer) - PERIOD. This is not class warfare.
