We have our warts, but do it for the love of the game. The PGA is like a religous sect, most members have taken a vow of poverty. In all seriousness, It is a nice lifestyle, but members leave the profession to pursue more lucrative opportunities.

This post is only meant to inform not offend. Their are some other PGA members who faithful participant to this site. They have work very hard to attain and maintain their memberships. They and their organization should not be confused with the PGA Tour

Oh I agree. I meant TOUR. The teaching core- the original PGA- has been victims of several bad policies from the hands of the break off group turned multi-millionaires, “The Tour.” They lost the PGA Championships to the Tour with less and less spots allowed. I know we want to see the best but toss a bigger bone to these guys who are the ambassadors of the game. They are growth. The Tour builds mansions with this growth, the teaching core folds sweaters and deal with unhappy tee times of members, who should know better. The PGA Tour would inspire Dickens.
