I haven’t played either of them for over 5 years.

I am rather lucky. The closest points of the 3 courses nearest to my house are 125m, 290m and 750m from my door respectively. All three of them are top 100 courses. I am a member of one, and have friends who play at each of the other two. They are all wonderful courses..!
So this must be either the 3 Ws or Southport. I’m intrigued

Just checked, all the below are withing 10 miles from my house according to Google...

Sunningdale
Swinley Forest
Queenwood
Wentworth
The Berkshire
The Wisley
St George's Hill
Woking
Worplesdon
West Hill
New Zealand
Foxhills
Burhill

Then another half a dozen decent private members clubs, including where I play.

A fair few Crown Golf and another half dozen average member clubs.

3 decent pay and plays, about 5 more poor ones.

Yep, there's a lot of options round here!

My satnav lists 62 golf courses within 10 miles (as the crow flies) of my house. But I know at least two have closed recently. So that leaves a mere 60 to choose from.

I have about 15 or so that are within 10 miles i think. I have just started playing so will possibly be looking to join a club next year not sure where yet though.

I know which one you mean but for me there are more factors at play than just limiting it to that one choice alone because of its status..

I can see your point.

What are you after from the golf club you are wishing to join?

I am in Sunday, if you want to come and have a look round let me know (y)

Why.... Because I don't gravitate straight towards Woodhall because of its status.. :unsure:
its not about status. its dirt cheap, has the best practice facilities arguably in the country, 2 courses, very friendly membership. personally i dont see how you could look anywhere else.

membership sales guy is a bit of a shark though

Not questioning the price because I agree highly affordable, not questioning facilities as again exceptional and as for the dodgy sales guy he's been really helpful me already through this forum alone. The reason I'm not gravitating straight to that without shopping around first isn't down to price it's down to my family and what they can get out of it as well from social aspects etc and how my memberhsip affects them.

If it ticks all those boxes then you're right I'd be silly not to but I'll always look about first by taking them into consideration before the golfing aspects.
