Its a helluva risk to take and budget for with no guarantee of anything. Drop £200 for lets say 500 members for round figures is a £100k deficit which would mean over 166 new members needing found just to stand still.

Crazy thinking
Put into those numbers you're right and the club would definitely need a plan B to cover the short fall if they don't get the numbers in. 166 new members is a lot of new members to find in a pretty small catchment area no doubt with other clubs competing to the same transient golfers

Admittedly it's a gamble. Maybe not so severe then, and I'm using (some) local prices to me. Full members at 350. Then maybe a drop down to £680. The thing is to find the tipping point for fee to lure golfers back in to full membership.
