Agree mostly. I like Indian creek more than players club

I should say not. Would offer to pay myself.
He could go either way.
No relationship at all…met him at an event for the course before it started construction. I just figured if you invite someone, you pay the fee. Again…imma poor
Okay…maybe I’m off base here.

You typically pay the greens fees at those places you get invited to. That $200 let’s you play all day too.
Players Club is just ok. Really modern golf course with a few great holes and a few that you just go what the hell was that? It’s fine to play once if you can.
Not a dick move in my opinion. Paying $200 to play Lost Rail is pretty fair considering what the member pays in initiation and dues. I used to have buddies come play Oak Hills when I belonged there and had them pay. Was around $85. I believe Happy and OCC is like $150ish for guests playing with a member.

Worth it to play there at least once. I think they bumped it up to $250 though. They were pissed off at the amount of guests.

Have a lot of buddies who are members at Players club and I worked there in high school. Probably played it 100 times. It’s fine.
Like all pre-recession housing development courses, the houses got the best land and the golf was left with the land that’s in valleys, in wet areas, or really steep.
Back 9 is better than the front, but it’s very penal and too stretched out through the neighborhood. Front 9 is pretty fun, holes 4-7 were squeezed in on steep land, making them awkward.
Highlands is trash.

I know it's worth it to pay, I just didn't know the protocol for that. Now that I've been schooled...I'll have to reach out to Dirk again to see if I'm still in good graces
Please report back if you do end up getting to play. Super jealous if you can get out there. I hear it is an amazing course!
Which is amazing to me. Doesn't seem like the type at all. Think they just joined after he retired.

I don’t know the guy at all. Maybe he wanted to join the old man card club. The average age in their cry room feels like 104 some days.
@Jay Bilzerian have you played the Rail?? I DM'd Chatelin and haven't gotten anything back yet...maybe I fucked up

Yes. The course itself is great. Wish it was more spread out though. I’m a little surprised Dirk had the scratch to join as a OWH sports writer….great for him though!!
