Member/ Guest Tournament gifts

[bcp]

For those of you that have played in Member/ Guest tournaments, what is the typical gift that the guest receives?

Typically sleeve of ball, some tees, and maybe a golf towel.

I have played in a few that are similar to the first reponse - but have also played in a few that the tee gifts are really nice. One of them a few years ago had (Odyssey putter, FJ shoes, umbrella, and some other stuff). One last year had a dozen balls, real nice travel bag, shirt, and a hat. Good Luck.

My club has, Camron Putters, Foot Joy’s, Vokey’s, FJ pull over’s and lots of other choices. Figure $90. You could also pay a little extra to upgrade. I picked a pair of Dry Joys, I think I paid $30-35.

By the way this is 4 days, all you can eat and drink. All skins are paid for. Closest to the pin won $90 for each flight each day. At the end there is a party with spouses again food and open bar. It is really quite an event. I think of it as college with money. The entry fee is $500 a man and worth every penny.

I was rolling through the Men’s grill on the last day in the afternoon and there was 30 guys up against the window. It looks over the 9th green. They all had morning tee times and were having a good time. They were betting on everything, who would pull the pin, who would put it back the putts it was hilarious. Some of the guys on the green were savvy. Some groups would have 3 different guys touch the pin but not pull it. The peanut gallery would go wild.

Many guests often receive ridicule by uppity members.

I realize that is a joke but I find the opposite to be true. Everyone at the club is there to have fun. There is a wide range of people but they all have one thing in common. This is where they come to get away.
