  Hi WGT,

  The cost of Passes at 37 credits is fine if you are playing 18 holes, but I think this is expensive if you play 9 holes. So could we not have 3 tiers of Passes.

  18 Holes  37 credits

   9 Holes 19 credits

  Closest to the hole 7 credits.

  This might be helpfull to all Country Club members

  37, 19 or 7 credits - what is YOUR benefit from a purchased CC pass?

  Does it outweigh the first detriment coming into my mind, it postpones your next free pass(?)

  Having any  pass only stops you from actually receiving the free pass, the clock continues to run  it does not reset to 11;59:59. Sometimes purchasing a pass does outweigh the cost...The first game and only the first game of a new day gets a consecutive days played bonus and some of the time the freeby does not coincide with that time, for me thats a difference of 880 pts

  I try to buy CC pass's for every tourney I play up to 5 per day, so all the points go towards my CC, not just the first tourney of the day. All I am saying is paying 37 for a 9 hole is expensive.

  Excuse me, I'm still missing your explanation about the benefits which you get from buying passes?

  I fail to see them, given that one free pass a day may provide around or more than 1,000 XPs to your CC, while the second - purchased - pass will usually only give 240 or 440 XPs, and block the next free pass.

  In the light of this, even only 9 cr for 14 XP of a CTTH seem plain irrational to me.

  Furthermore, it's each player's deliberate decision to buy a pass or not, thus, if it appears too expensive in a certain situation, simply don't!

  To me, as a player and as a CC owner, any spendings on passes are squandered.

  Thanks for your input, the benefit for me is to give the CC that I am with maximum points for each tourney I play as they are trying to get to No.1 spot in the Weekly XP race. This was only a suggestion.

  I thank you for your concise answer.

  It's difficult to reply to and criticize such emotional target. I only hope that that you're getting the deserved recognition for your achievements, like a plaque of honour (weekly?) or any other memorabilia... After all, it must be matched week after week!

  I'm sorry to spoil your party, but IMHO you and your mates are being abused by he company too contribute your efforts and your monies to a ridiculously unnecessary item. But this is only my private opinion.

  Live long and prosper ;)

  Actually, the purchase of a pass hasn't delayed or blocked the next free pass for many, many months now.  If I use a free pass, the next free one comes 12 hours later regardless of any purchased passes in between.  However I only purchase passes one at a time when I choose when prompted at the beginning of a round and, as such, have no idea how bulk purchases are handled.

  Not condoning or condemning pass purchases....just saying....

  Thanks for the info - I wouldn't have bought any more passes to prove my outdated knowledge.
