The real estate taxes for ALL Sumter County property owners were increased substantially to pay for the expanding infrastructure in the south end of The Villages. I’d guess people living in the northern end of TV would be very, very happy to agree not to drive 30-45 minutes thru heavy seasonal traffic to stand and listen to a band in an overcrowded “square” in the south end of The Villages in exchange for a rebate of those increased taxes!

Villages has a track record of canceling amenities events and like Katie Bells , Movie theaters Country Club restaurants and pools
In the name of greed Their forgetting what drew people here to The Villages in the beginning . Bait and switch

I thought the payment for the fitting was to hold the time slot, but if you bought anything, you got the payment back as a credit, at least that was my expereince.

Or they got cancelled because those items did not make money.

The small charge to attend the event was well worth it. Spend a day walking around, hearing the speakers and watching the live trick shot demonstrations, and testing out new equipment from many manufacturers. All in one place. If you didn't get to go, you don't know what you've missed. Probably cheaper to run these little country club sales and call them a "festival".

I know they have occasional "brand specific" days spread out through the year, but not a "Golf Fest"...

Trying out clubs vs. getting fitted for clubs
Quote:
I think of it this way…I can go into a hundred different department stores and “try out” new suits. I will certainly find some that fit pretty well and some that don’t. But if I go into a TAILOR SHOP owned and manned by employees of the manufacture of the suit(s), have the suit(s) tailored TO ME, I am MUCH more likely to have the best looking, best fitting suit I could find. If I get to pay the same price for either! That is a HUGE bonus! Fitting remove the subjectivity of the tryouts. TRACKMAN does not lie! You can try several different manufacturers during the current Golf Fest format (6 days total over 3 months), go home, sit down, compare the OBJECTIVE performance, specs and prices and make annINFORMED decision on much more than just how a club(s) feel. |
