Mike.
I understand supporting the club is one thing but should never be the exclusive a marker of a decent person. A well known South East course opened with a joining fee around £25k, the literature was all about exclusiveness, etc, etc. The club held a couple of European Tour events and the clubhouse and members tent had a good number of heavily tattoed types present.
258 members turning over $8m that is an amazing figure. At many Scottish clubs 258 members would do well to turn over £258k all in.
Looking forward to seeing you in Toledo.
