Re: What did you buy today?

... I'm sure @DougE will scold me for not changing wedges more often. Maybe it's something I have to think about. If you are playing 100 rounds or more with practice in between, you will see a dramatic difference in wedge spin over the period. Yet, from day to day, it's imperceptible. I try to refr...

I have to agree with you, Beef......yet, again.

Re: 2024 - Club Memberships & Season Passes

Or, is the $400 2-year pass not open to morning weekend play? That would make a lot more sense, though still a fantastic deal. Personally, I'd jump at a $400 two-year deal to play after 4pm midweek only, and still feel like I was stealing. As a member, I can only book a tee time 3 days in advance. ...

Re: 2024 - Club Memberships & Season Passes

Wow, 500 passes!!? I'd love to get a look at their P+L sheet to see how that's done. If that's the case, the weekend mornings must be somewhat taken up by players paying basically nothing to play, shutting out so many who aren't pass holders, who are willing to pay $60. Doing simple math, with the f...

Re: 2024 - Club Memberships & Season Passes

Matt, I don't understand how this can possibly be profitable. How does any golf course worth playing survive with a $400 two-season pass fee? Our morning foursome rate on a weekend is nearly $500 for one single foursome, for one single round! I am intimately familiar with the costs to run a high-end...

Re: 2024 - Club Memberships & Season Passes

We usually have no trouble filling our tee sheet every weekend day, in-season (weather-permitting), from open until 3pm. Our rates this year will be $120 weekend mornings and $100 after 1pm. As a result, we have been purposely limiting the pass holder plans we offer, especially those which allow for...

Re: Stretching and flexibility thread

See that is what I am talking about. I am pretty sure that the majority of decent golfers (maybe excepting those who possess exceptional, abnormal flexibility) have to put time and effort into this. But you don't necessarily see it. In my view, stretching must be done before you get to the golf cou...

Hey Beef, you above water? Been thinking of you out in Ojai, not very far from many of the news reports of major flooding. Hope you are safe.

Re: Wrap Up - 2023

What the hell, I'm off from work today and don't feel like spending anymore time in bed. Been sick since mid-December, literally. Spent the last two weeks in bed, on and off, intermingled with Pro Shop shifts which I had to pull myself out of bed for, just to keep things going and the course operati...
