They tell you to enjoy the game but the pin placements are on a hill, the results, 3 or 4 missed putts just 5 feet away.
Most of us women have no clue as to what a gimme is and need to hear the ball hit the bottom of the cup..
Seen many Villagers hovering over the ball 30 seconds just to hit the damn ball... :cus:

I like hearing the ball drop also. Even if one in the group says “good by me”. I putt it out. It’s the only way to really track your score. :)

I have found that if you're not a priority member you will be shut out of tee times on championship courses... definitely in the morning (not sure about the afternoon). As the snowbirds return, this will be a bigger problem. Plus, I enjoy playing and then going to the priority pools.
I've heard if you play 2x a week priority is worth it.
I can tell you I won't give up Priority membership. I don't want to get shut out on championship courses.

We are retired, lots of time, pace of play is no problem.
