Handpicking your members doesn't hurt either. Heard a story last week when they were trying to make the whole "IBM CEO is a woman will Augusta offer her a membership" a bigger deal than it was. Augusta sent word to some buisnessman in South Carolina and extended a membership. He'd just have to pay a measily $200,000. He responded to them and asked if he could pay it in two installments of $100k, b/c we know only the ballers of the OT have that kind of change just laying around. He never heard back from Augusta National

I thought it was a novel idea. That way they wouldn't have to pay all the tax on 200,000 all at once.

That is funny, I think the only response should be with the check for $200,000.00 I would sell my kidney to help raise the money.
