  I joined a CC (Dumbsticks at WGT) a couple of weeks ago and it's going to be awesome....we have a great CC owner (Frank...BlondeSquirrel) with very little requirements (just play and use your free passes...that's it). We're looking for WGT members of any gender and Tier. We're just a bunch of friendly, respectful guys and gals here to make some friends, and maybe play some golf in between. If you're looking for a very stress free place to play your golf, come join us...you'll like it here....Jim

  We're currently having an open enrollment period where to can join without Frank having to accept you....we're currently at 35 members, but looking for more quality members.

  Join us in the "Sticks" (DumbSticks at WGT CC....Dumbsticks at WGT)

  Sometimes open enrollment does not work in the best interests of a club. While the club has a membership list of 35, ten of your members appear to be inactive. Allowing membership to Hacks before they prove they are going to stick with WGT can make it appear that the club does not have the best interests of playing members in mind. What message is sent when people look at your membership roll?

  A better way to recruit is to meet people through muli-player games where a true relationship can be formed. The club must employ some standards or it will be populated by  lost souls. It is always best to know something about those souls invited to join a group when that group is supposed to have a common interest. That common interest should be the focus of recruiters, not just pure numbers.
