I remember reading it when I first started making tee times. It is the placement points that make it difficult to bring a guest to an executive course.

The other item that may surprise people is the fact that a guest of a priority member has less placement points than a resident member and will go in the queue before the resident member. This is only for a request to obtain championship course tee times.

To state another way, on a day I cannot play, 3 residents and my guest (priority) would go in front of a group of 4 residents for a tee time request for a championship course.
I was aware of the placement situation with priority and that priority guest went ahead of resident and one of the reasons I dropped priority after being here 7 years.

However I was not aware that placement points counted with executive courses probably because I seldom use it and because all I see are the points made against a player for the previous week.

I need to re-read everything again...Guess the Law of Disuse is coming into play here. thanks AJ
