Well doesn't that just suck? I guess the party is over. I don't know Marty but I know he's a member in the winter league I play in.

I like Elmtree so I will likely remain in on some level. It may be on a slightly more limited basis however. Once I see the 2017 rates, I'll decide if I will go with a card or not. Looking at the old rates, it was $18 more to play on Sunday with no card than the out of county card rate ($65 vs $47). If those rates stay the same and if the out of county card costs $150, then it will take over 8 rounds to break even. So my decision will be to either buy the card and play more than 8 times or not buy it and travel up less often.

On limiting the team action, I definitely don't care one way or the other. I sort of liked the random team thing but I would be fine if people want to cut a couple bucks and remove it.

I am going to suggest we might want to revisit the rounds required for Tournaments too. And maybe just go with two tournaments - an early season and season ending (the last being the Sean tournament)? Things to discuss over pizza.

See you all next month!

I'm in county too, but if out of county rates impact attendance then we should find a way to minimize out of county cost or else it could impact all. 

Think we should keep team play, it's the foundation that keeps out sandbaggers and I don't have time for the range.

Maybe up the vig a little and start off on the right foot.

I will reach out to Marty soon.  Regarding the action, I am fine with how it is currently, but I will go with the masses.  If we wanted to move it in some way, we could make it this...   3/3/3 per side teams, and 1/1/1 per side individual action = $12 and then add $3 to the club per week making the action $15 per week.  Then we can move the tournaments to two, mid year and end of year.  That being said, as it now stands that we have to pay individually, then no tips are  needed.  Which means that all players will have to be in by a specific time to pay their greens fees, make teams, and get out to the course.  Baby chops and choppettes are in trouble, so is Randy, so is Chris $, etc.....

I too will follow whatever the club decides.

I am like Keith in that I am good for coming back in 2017 with my usual limited availability.  Whatever the group decides with regard to format is fine with me.  I like the team thing but individual would work as well.  Play both in my other league and they both are fun.  Whatever the cost is, it is.  Just tell me when I get there on Sunday morning.  See you all on the links if I don't make the Pizza Party!!! 
 

I'm in county, so minimal change for me. I like the team action but will go with majority vote. Think cut off should be Thursday evening. Most people know weekend plans by then. Just a thought. Will renew county card soon. Look forward to seeing everyone soon.
