Default Exec Courses

The plan is for:
One to exec open @ Evans in Dec.
Two two are planed to opene in the fall on 2013 @ Evans
The other nine at the Champinship Course @ Evans will open in the fall of 2013
The "plans" are to start building the three execs at Bonafey in the fall of 2013 and Starting the new Chanpinship Course in the fall of 2013. These builds will depend on the " new home sales."

Interesting.
Group - how many 4, 16, 24?
How many courses in the request?
What was the size of the time window in the request?
Everyone playing two or more times per week? Results in high points.

Rp....anytime you include a guest, your request is evaluated AFTER all resident-only requests, regardless of how many points you or they have.

Guests in a request are rarely satisfied in prime months unless you ask for very early or very late.

That's just how the system works.

Almost impossible to get a guest on an executive course. Some put a resident in and later sub a guest to beat the system so to speak. However, I have no idea how many times you can do that switch before you are sanctioned. An alternative is to play 9 holes after 1:30 on a Chanpionship Course. That is what I personally do in the winter when I have a guest.

But just when I start to worry about silly stuff like this, I figure the Morse's know how to do this a lot better than I do, so I'm just going to let them handle it. I'm sure they are very grateful for my lack of interference.
I think you are onto something. You add to that guests, renters, and we really need 15 additional executive course for a total of 44 executive courses

Two ways are available..One is to wait a day or two before and check for open t times and then just plug yourself in..The other is 9 hole championship after 1 pm...Played Palmer yesterday and Oakleigh today.

I got three guests on three different days in february and march this year thru the electronic tee time system. They were early tee times, which I prefer anyway.

Thanks for the Exec GC info. Has anyone heard the name/timeline for the 12th Championship GC?
