Jud,

At the risk of breaching the unwritten rule regarding invitations, please, please let me join your golf club.

And BCowan,

Welcome to a British golf club.

  Paul,

     thanks, I am lucky to play at a club that has emulated a British Golf Club model.  Seems to be working for we have a waiting listing and others aren't even close to full.

My own club - who gets in?

Standards of behaviour and the strength of character of those in charge to enforce, yes, enforce, club rules and regulations have diminished within golf (and society).

So for me it's not not so much a question of who gets 'in' as who gets to stay 'in' and who gets thrown out!

Turn in your application.
warm up for 20 minutes
Walk 18 with me
finish in 3.5 or better.....passed step one
Divots a square or line in warm up....passed step two
Repair your divots properly...continue
Repaired your ball marks properly...continue
Enter bunker correctly, and rake properly...continue


As I continue to purposely mark my ball incorrectly, you ask me..."Hey Lexi, you going to at least TRY to mark your ball correctly?"


YOUR IN!!!
