Another great thing about Oak Hill - the pro shop staff and members.
Two stories..
1. I was visiting family and had some time so I drove up to look around. It was April, chilly, and I got out of my car and chatted with a member on the range. About 30 minutes later we laughed, shook hands, and wished each other well. I didn't know the guy from Adam, but my family knew who he was (let's just say I should've known too). This guy was as friendly as my best friend and we had a great time just talking about Oak Hill.
2. The Christmas after the PGA Championship, Laura and I were in town visiting the same family. I decided to run up to the Pro Shop on a whim, hoping they'd have some PGA swag on sale - which they did. Now, we didn't plan this, so I felt like a schmuck going up there in jeans, but they couldn't have cared less. I chatted with an assistant pro for quite a while (the place was abandoned), we talked about the Green Jacket... The pro was even going to smuggle us over to see the bowling alley! But never happened - Mr. Harmon dropped in, and was SOOO nice to Laura and me.
If they made me feel so good there, imagine how they treat their own members. A first-class operation all around.
(and, yes, I have similar stores about other clubs - all good. I' chose to forgot the very few bad experiences I've ever had!)
