why can't the main sponsors, even WGT themselves sponsor a couple of comps for country club owners, for their members to play in, the cost of a few sleeves of balls wouldn't break the bank.
I don't see the reason why the owners should have to fund all prizes themselves. And as WGT themselves do for hosting comps and such , allow country clubs to rake a percentage of fees to fund them prizes also after all they the ones hosting the comp.
