I don't know. But I strongly feel that there should be a similar group for them. At first I thought the lack may be because the developer owns all of them whereas the execs are part of the amenities. But all execs below 466 (except for the Pimlico group) are still owned by the developer and our group still evaluates and discusses them.

One of the benefits of our group, IMO, is that we are on the courses regularly, so we can communicate issues we see right away. Even with best intentions, I don't think the pros or GMS hierarchy can cover the courses as completely as the residents. A group of experienced (think greens committee experience) residents for each championship course could mean more eyes looking for areas that need attention. I know our group has great relationships with the pros with oversight of our courses.
