It's always nice to see a truthful post and see someone admit they're part of the problem.

I hope David Williams is reading this ...

I've played with regular threesomes multiple time and I've never had an issue...

In fact, I've met some great people and now have some new golfing partners...

One time, I played with 3 relative beginner women. We had a blast! They were hysterical... They could trash talk with the best of them!

As much as that is the right thing to do, large groups won't do that in general as they don't want "outsiders" (outside of their group) to join in. A bigger problem is two players adding two guests or spouses into their reservation only to have the guests be "unable to make it". In those cases, the guests are non existent or the spouses simply don't play golf. Lots of games being played so that couples can play a round of Golf by themselves.

No shows are 3 pts but if you play once a week, they probably don’t care. Besides a large group is given a reservation by the average of the total points, If the group of 24 has 23 with 1 point and one with 3, they average 1.0x (it’s too early to do the math)

Happens all the time. They will also reserve for Guest and say the guest could not make it. No points charged.

Happens all the time

I caught someone using my ID number for tee times when I was up north. I happened to check the website and saw that I had a tee time for an executive course and it wasn't with anyone that I knew. They were using it once or twice a week for a month. I called the golf office and reported it and it never happened again.

I believe the residents gets charged the points for a guest that doesn't show.

Not true. Points are assessed to the resident the guest is attached to on the reservation.

Most folks who are regular users of the tee time system know of one or more people who make use of "ghost" golfers on their requests. I agree that it may be difficult to catch if done sporadically. Still, the tee time office views this practice as abuse of the system, and offenders can be punished. I know a resident who was regularly using the ID# of a non-golfer as a ghost. After repeated instances, the tee time office busted him. His golfing privileges were suspended for 30 days.

That depends on how attractive the person is. Membership has always had privileges in this world. It's no different here in TV.

Nope.

:rolleyes: And I hope he read your reply before you changed it! :ohdear:

Maybe someone read this chat and cancelled! I couldn't find a tee time for 2, at a reasonable time, on Friday. Then I checked later in the day and there was an open time midday at Bacall.

Thank you to whoever cancelled. Earlier the better!

Me too.
