Can someone please explain to me why we are trying to push away players? I'm all for starting on time, but some of the decisions and thoughts being tossed around lately just do not make sense.
Why would we cannibalize the ace fund now? Half of it is gone. How many people come out just for that chance at the $300 ace fund, and if it was all gone now, they wouldn't show up. Now there is still $300, and we have a good amount of people showing up to fill up the next one. the more people that show, the fast it gets filled. Ok, so only a local wins it, great, but how much extra cash did the club make, and still stand to make from all those guys traveling in that wouldn't have other wise showed up? If we get to a point where we are pushing 3 capped ace funds, then maybe we should think about using one to fund tee pads.
why on earth would we add in playing 19 to the round, and then start discussing moving up the starting time? Its obvious some people are already pushing it to make it by 6. Shown by the fact that we have to stress that we will be starting at 6pm sharp. So now lets make that time 5:30, and do so sooner because some people want to still play the old #18. The club needs to leave it at 6 for as long as possible to play 18, not 19 holes because the sooner you change it to 5:45 or 5:30, the club will lose a lot of players and all those players $1 each week. Besides, the more the merrier right?
just seems like common sense decisions to me. I don't understand why there is a debate.You can say we should have a vote, and majority voted to play 19, but the majority isn't always right, and doesn't always have the best interest for club in mind.
