A month or so ago I posted on dgscene asking if anyone would be interested in a Weds Night Doubles League at my private course out here in the sticks. The 5 courses I posted in are 30-60 mins from me (closest courses) and I've been playing them for many years. Hell, I even put in two of those courses on my own dime and time.
I guess it was a big NO-NO because there is a SUPER LEAGUE with 100+ people playing on the same night at a course even further away (1hr 15mins) and I must have come across as trying to lure away their players. Really? Seriously? I didn't even post on that course's page but still recieved a few PM's basically saying "How dare you?" and "Did you even check with the local club and ask permission first?"
Ask permission? When did they buy that public park and spend countless hours and own $$$ on the damn thing?
C'mon, I didn't even post anything on that course, which again is an 1hr and 15 mins away (even longer if you add in traffic) and I'm stealing people away from them and their 100+ Super League? "They might see your post on that X course and might not play our overcrowded Y course"
????????
So I guess you're not allowed to have a league at your own private course because you might steal people away from a super league at a public course 50 miles away? I guess they won cause only 1 person showed up here...
That's some BS
I'd play at your league, DonnyV!
That said, this sounds like a slightly different issue than the OP's.
I guess the point you should take away from it is that dgscene is teh suxxors.
