Doesn't constitute a "golf club" for the purposes of this discussion...scroll on by if you feel otherwise.
(control of a golf course, at a minimum, is the hurdle)
So here's a list of things to consider:
-- "milestone birthdays"
-- "special anniversaries"
-- "memorial receptions"
-- "prom dinners"
-- "engagement parties"
-- "baby showers"
-- "wine dinners"
-- "business functions"
-- weddings
If the stated mission is to take that path -- "golf club" or country club??
What say ye...

So you your original post asks a question whose answer doesn’t interest you. You already decided what makes for a golf club. If you know, why ask?
Ciao

It is different here -- legitimate private clubs own the course and with few exceptions said course is only available to members in good standing.
Seminole, Peachtree, Pine Valley, Spyglass, Palmetto, Garden City, Cypress Point...
...this is the type of "golf club" model I am referencing for the purposes of this discussion. 🤙
