HOA's... ours may be the worst. 

 

Took garbage out before 7pm last night, got a letter. (6:45)

 

Developer hasnt built half of the amenities they promised, yet my garbage being out is the main concern

 

Aren't they just the most petty bunch of ar#*^oles?

Next time rub arms down liberally with hand cream /lotion. It will help to make a barrier. Then shower afterwards. I use to work in fiberglass in aircraft manufacturing.

We use baby powder the same way when we grind fiberglass on boats. Pack it into the pores to keep the fiberglass out. Hadn't heard that one, but lotion makes sense.

Ours does! It's just frustrating getting “violations” over stupid stuff but the things they don't put any priority to makes me mad. We pay a snow removal company, last big storm they didn't clear the walkway til 4pm, we cleared it ourselves twice!

I couldn't stand it. I'm happy living out with the rednecks. Nobody hassles us about anything. I hear stories from some of my colleagues, and it drives me nuts just listening to it.

Looking at places to move. Found a really sweet golf course. Checked the Memebrship info... $40,000 initiation plus yearly dues.

 

Looks like I'm stuck playing unkept munis for life.

You and me both, my friend. Of course, I can suck on a $25 muni as easily as at a $150 country club, so...

Boyyyyy, did I hit the ball well at the range tonight!!! Sadly, it's one day AFTER my fitting! I did a bunch of drills, worked-up to full-swings, and was flushing everything the last 30 balls! Sheesh. Figures!

I'm getting really sick of getting 'great tee times available' emails from Supreme Golf only to look out the window to see snow. GO AWAY WINTER!!!

This really worked well. The insulation I think was the old cellulose stuff. Vacuumed pretty much all of it out last time but still some remnants today and no problems in the shower.

Glad it helped. Don't know where you would find it but we had a product call skin glove (I think) it worked better than just lotion.

I'll stick to the lotion for the next two days. Got a little demo left for one room and a whole small second room to do and it's an old house so that should be it for the insulation.

Yet another local muni course eliminated walking rates this year and now requiring you to pay the cart-price even if you want to walk. On top of that, they are requiring you to take a cart when you play a certain times of the day. The worst part about it is that it's a course practically made for walking. Almost every course now in my part of the Detroit area has switched to this model to boost their $$$ over the past couple years.

We were discussing this trend of charging a “walking fee” or charging everyone for a cart at my home club a few days ago. I don't understand the concept!?!?!

 

There has to be much more suitable and reasonable ways to increase revenue. Golf was intended to be played while walking. It seems like this would alienate loyal customers.

Agreed. I totally understand the forced carts for some of the more modern courses that have long gaps in between holes - when you have 100+ yards between greens and tees it can affect pace of play. My main issue is the courses that are 100% perfect for walking forcing you to pay for a cart, especially when walking seems to be increasingly popular these days. 

 

I've actually stopped playing a number of local courses and driving out of my way to play tracks that give some type of discounted rate to walk. I know carts aren't cheap but don't make golfers who don't want to use them subsidize that cost. 

 

edit: A the solution in your club's situation should be to reduce the number of carts available at the course and slightly increase the cost for their use. Say, it's a $15 added fee now for a cart, by bumping it to $20 then reducing the # of carts, could, in theory, push the supply-demand enough to encourage walking while increasing the return on the carts a small percent. Then there's the added benefits of less course abuse and improved pace of play by having more walkers vs cart.

My club doesn't charge anyone to walk above membership dues. We were discussing it because two clubs about an hour from here began doing so.

 

It wouldn't go over well at my club. Conservatively estimating 40% of the membership walk at least half their rounds. Our club is fortunate to be very well managed so we're in a very good financial position.
