Vote with your feet if you don't like it I guess. Spend $5 or $10 bucks on gas to go somewhere off campus? They got us. Captive audience.

If you add together last year’s morning wave – 18 holes, summer and fall rates for the Resident Members(RM) for each course and divide the total by two to get an average cost for the two periods, when compared to the new rates for the same time period, you’ll see that, except for Hacienda Hills, Evans Prairie and Palmer Legends, the fees went up 50 cents. Hacienda and Evans Prairie went up $2.50 and Palmer went down $4.50.
And, if you do the same math for Priority Members (PM) again, with the exception of Hacienda Hills, Evans Prairie and Palmer, the increase is $2.00 and it’s $4.00 for Hacienda, Evans Prairie. Palmer Legends went down $3.00. |

But, but that can’t be. I read above the sky is falling.

Without getting into who can afford it and where would you go etc. - I have been here in TV since 2005. My experience percentage wise the cost of living here is increasing annually more than it has been in the previous 14 years rapidly. Restaurant prices, championshipship golf prices, movie theater, entertainment venues, house prices, etc. Way above what the CPI claims the inflation rate is.

I don't understand the "cult" comment but I guess I would like to bring this thread back to the subject - golf. I played both Belle Glade and Evans Prairie within the last month and I thought the courses were fine. I like the convenience. I'm OK with eliminating the twilight $7 championship golf because the majority of those golfers would never pay to play championship during the day. So the majority aren't either good enough to play championship or don't respect the course enough (fix divots) to play championship.

I just like to play nine holes late in the day in the summer. The nine hole late-day rate is in effect the same as the twilight rate was, but it starts earlier in the afternoon than the twilight rate did. And it lasts much longer...through December. So I’m a happy camper! |
