I nervously looked around the pro shop. Here comes the pro. He s tan and lean with perfect Augusta manicured hair.
May I help you pard ner? he asked.
I hope so, I said. I ve won one of your auctions for a tee time. Here s my receipt thing, and I want to play.

The tee time auction model that I knew started in Indianapolis in 2000. Then rapidly expanded because it helped both parties with their problems.The course playing slots are filled in slow times, and expose new players to courses that wouldn t normally fit their budget.
