Following up here. I ended up joining. I wanted somewhere convenient, wasn't tens-to-hundreds of thousands of dollars, but most importantly I could/would use during the week. Initiation was $9000 and monthly dues are $210 (they say initiation is going up 7/1). I've been officially a member a week this Saturday and, in that time, I will have been 3x. I took my wife with me to "tour" it for lunch last week and she was pleasantly surprised. It's obvioisly not a real golf club experience, but it mostly fits the bill while we're living in Oak Forest and I think it's going to get a good bit of use. I looked hard at Champions and Golfcrest (in-laws live in Friendswood) but both are too far and pricey for, at most, weekend golf. Champions is an incredible value, though. It's definitely pricier than the basic sim places that are popping up but I occasionally travel to cities that have other intown locations and I/we will definitely be hanging out there from time to time, as well.
