I donāt know about PFC, but Iāve got initiation fees and dues for Longue Vue and Fox Chapel if you need it. I just moved to FC, so Iāve been shopping some clubs in the area.

I was so confused my first time playing there. I called down like 2 weeks in advance as part of a Central Counties exchange. I show up and they say āwe donāt do tee times hereā. Just line up at the first and go out.

Yeah, Iām theory itās nice just to walk up and go, sometimes itās a pain in the ass when there 3-4 groups waiting to go out. Even still, I can count on one hand the times I went there and had to wait last year minus the weekends when the groups go out in the mornings

So has anyone creeped on any of the other Roosts? How many do we need to form up?
Anyone jumped to Ohio or DC/MD yet?
I recall there may have been some thought of getting one in Pittsburgh/western PA and Iād love to see that at some point. I know there are a few Erie people in the Ohio one. I joined that one, too. The match play event in Ohio seems like itāll be sweet.
Roosts are all settled for the year but there were early talks of having a WNY/CNY/WPA roost but application was denied. They were going for at least 20 members, we got to about 15, I believe. Maybe next year 
So what one are you in, @jsauce? Just taking the year off?
Iām in the Ohio roost

Yes lol. There are definitely some more cost-effective options in the area.

A friend and I were playing an event at Longue Vue a few years back and called to see what a practice round might cost. They said $275 a guy
