The good and the bad at Pound Ridge

So here’s my take on the new Pound Ridge Golf Club in today’s paper. The abridged version: I liked it a lot, but my ego and my wallet couldn’t afford to play there on a regular basis.
Which is fine. I doubt a sports writer with a mortgage and two kids is what owner Ken Wang had in mind as a target market when he built the place. And to be fair, when some of my Wall Street buddies have called to ask my opinion, I’ve recommended it (and suggested they bring me along).
The larger problem—and I didn’t broach this topic in the story—is given the current state of the economy, could Wang have picked a worse time to open a high-end golf course?
