Piedmont Driving Club member alleges guy picked up golf ball with 'naked' butt cheeks, another played one hole at private club in the nude, and more

You won't find a more exclusive and prestigious private club in Atlanta than the Piedmont Driving Club.

Founded in 1887, the organization boasts some of the city's elite among its membership ranks, including lawyers, CEOs, and other well-heeled movers and shakers. You better have money and connections if you want to see your daughter's debutante ball at the PDC's stately clubhouse near Piedmont Park, or play a round of golf at its 18-hole course along Camp Creek Parkway. This, my friends, is a classy club.

That's why a recent letter to the driving club's president complaining of members' "inappropriate behavior" during a recent golf tournament left us shocked - SHOCKED.

According to the letter by an aggrieved member - which since being leaked has garnered more than 24,000 views and landed on blogs - classy acts of the weekend allegedly included, but were not limited to: at least one club member playing a hole of golf completely naked (the club website says the dress code is "casual at all times" but appropriate attire is "slacks, skirts, or golf shirts and collared shirts which must be tucked in"); several members urinating on the putting greens in front of a caddie and a woman; one member picking up a golf ball with his "naked butt cheeks"; a member slapping his penis against the face of a friend who had passed out in the men's grill; and members mooning guests of a rehearsal dinner.

UPDATE, 5/31/12, 10:30 a.m. A Piedmont Driving Club spokesman says in a statement:

"We have taken disciplinary action based on what we currently know to be true. We take this matter very seriously and are looking into it further. When all of the facts are gathered and verified, we will consider further action."

The full letter follows, in all its glory, after the jump:
