Thanks for the responses! I appreciate it!
Greg, the drive time is slightly shorter, (over the time frame I estimate saving about $250 in gas), I play in a league at a 9 hole affiliate right next door to the new course which I get free access to (save me $500 over the season), the two new courses play over 7000 yards v compared to 6600, with one of them being the Pines course (from the Tiger Tees over 8000,known as the longest course in the US with a rating of 80 LOL). There is not a whole lot of public play and because one one course is public I have full access to members only course.
To your question about opening to the public in full, I've worked there a couple different times and some of the members include professional athletes, billionaire CEOs, etc. This is the first year they are offering this under 30 membership, otherwise the membership is 8000 per individual with minimums.
Also the fitting is $200 clubs are about $1000. I'm selling my current set to a friend to help the cost a bit.
Hope I've given you a better idea!
