Not surprised.
But the no show will play next week, the group will use another number
Isn’t a new tee time system coming, maybe it will be easy to manage the groups.

Also like the idea of averaging points over a month.

Don't they have to put in the ID # of everyone in the group?

I know that's how it works in a championship course group I play with. They are all "priority" golf members and I'm not (since I'm not in TV enough to make it cost effective)...

They make the group tee-times of 3-4 foursomes (if they used a non-priority #, (AKA me), the group would be knocked out of the priority ranking), they leave me off the list. Once they e-mail the tee-time lists out, I look for an opening in one of the foursomes. Most times there is one. Occasionally, I get blocked out... Such is life...

There's an obvious "convenience premium" on the championship courses here. Being able to drive your own cart, is the primary reason so many of us put up with mostly poor course conditions, at higher than warranted prices compared to other courses outside The Bubble.

The fact that you drive your own cart makes these overpriced courses even more profitable to the owners. Courses outside The Villages have lower rates that include a cart.

Most courses make significant $$$ renting carts...
