MrsSnake1710: Can i get into the Double Eagle Club now?
No, club was limited to first 100 but the DE still counts!
I got my first tonight:
Wolf Creek #17 Double Eagle
Very nice shot Larry. Did you play # 18 well? If my first hadn't been the last shot on the front side of St,Andrews I couldn't have played the next hole very well. I was so excited that I would have not been able to come anywhere near the ding line.
As for the original Double Eagle club created and administered by Columbicgt it was created by him and he set the requirements for entry and limited the number of members he would accept.
Some of us were lucky enough to get ours within limit he set. That does not make our achievements any more important or credible than those who got theirs after the 100 member limit was set.
Actually at first it was 50 members of which I was # 50 but at the urging of a player that had gotten 3 DE and named president of the club he raised the limit to 100.
The reason he game for limiting the number of members was that as WGT was continually improving the attributes of the clubs and balls that he felt it was getting too easy to get a DE. Many of us disagreed. Still not easy to get a DE even with the best Clubs and balls but it was his club and he had a right to make the rules.
Maybe WGT should create a club where any DE would cause automatic entry into the club.
Another problem is that it appears that columbiacgt hasn't played for several years and hasn't been on at all in that time.
