What I mean is raising green fees make the people losing lose more and the people winning win more thus making the losers look elsewhere for lower priced losing tournaments and by doing that lower the total amount of players in a society.

Not really, coins are easily obtained by playing rounds and achieving challenges, career mode also pads out the bank roll a lot.

Well, it helps cover the cost with 200 tournaments but when they get to 500 and 1000 that extra 150 you can get does not cover the cost. Career mode? blah! Pay 500, win 250, get 150 in extra coin and I'm still down 100, over and over and over plus most societies seem to be playing the same courses so I don't get that extra 150.
OH - with 200 tournaments I'm gaining 1000 a week but once things get to 500 or 1000 tournaments?? . . . . . I'm NOT complaining just making an observation. I don't play 500 tournaments, makes no sense for 5.0 handicap players.
I can't wait for this place to get going again.

I think most people are banking a lot of coins just through their daily play of the game. Depending on the course, you could rake in 500+ in one round (playing outside a society in a Play Now scenario). Playing rounds outside of the society, just checking out new courses or giving an upcoming Society course a practice play beforehand can build up the bank pretty quick for green fees.
Make sure you are playing courses that have the Challenges list full. This gives you more opportunities for cash. Newly released courses won't have enough plays for a full Challenges list. I *think* a course needs at least 50 plays for those to fill up. You can view them before playing.
It's probably in the best interest of the player to balance the Societies they play in if they are struggling to place high enough on leaderboards to break even or better. Be a member in a few that are equal to your level of play so you can compete and maybe be in one or two that challenge you to get better. One thing you cannot control is who else joins a Society.
The Duck Hook Club has attracted a lot of the top players on PS4. That makes it tough for an average player like myself to break even in an event but i do accept the challenge of it with that membership. I also wanted DHC to be a club that was attractive to that level of player. I think you saw the notification already that upcoming Season 2 will be 500 for each regular event and 1000 for the season-end Major. I did this because most people have built up a pretty good bankroll by now and it is pretty easy to rake in some coin just playing normal "play now" rounds.

Well, if you are any good LOL. I think I get 150 most of the time on a new course TOTALLY understand raising to 500 and I'll have to play the 500s sooner or later. I've been keeping track of my weekly earnings and will see what happens to my 1000 week revenue once my green fees increase. Right now I win 65% of my green fees with $200 fees.
