Great deal, and I thought that my situation was pretty good!!!
My monthly base (because of the senior status) is $280 plus tax. That
includes food minimum with tips, (food only, does not include any
beverages), shoe care and bag storage. $14 per round for carts.

My bill usually is around $400. I just figure $6K for a year because
tournaments are extra, and there's always something else.
