You know what?If you dont mind playing in the heat of the afternoon you can get on as a walkon if your a single Tuesday thru Thursday.

Another reason to keep in shape and hoof it!

I was jealous when Erik got to go up there and play. I'd love to get out there sometime.

Fairways and Greens.

After living in Southern and Northern California for six years, it sure is nice to pay Central Pennsylvania rates for golf. In CA I would routinely pay $75-$100 (including cart) on the weekends. And you're generally forced to ride before noon. Now, there are a number of decent public/muni courses I play. Dauphin Highlands, where I play most of my golf, is $50 to ride on weekends. That's pretty much the highest, unless I get an invite to Hershey or some other semi-private course.

I hate you all...

its a shame where I live, we have Ponkapoag (voted top 50 worst in America) and George Wright GC... both Donald Ross designs owned by the state... well, to say the least they are the worst kept courses I have ever seen.. 18 holes - 38 bucks, season pass 900....

that gives you a picture of what I'm working with, course down the street from - Dedham Country and POLO (yeah I typed that correctly, POLO)... 45,000 initiation and 6 thousand a year...

$6k per year isn't really that much. $500/month? I would spend that anyway playing public courses and I wouldn't even get in as much golf.

It's the initiation that gets you.

did you miss that little fee... thats one of the cheaper clubs around here too... remember Brookline is 2 miles from my house... the hallowed "Country Club"...

I was lucky enough to be invited to play the championship course there from a friend who's family are members, I laughed inside, obviously, because 90% of the members there are horrible at golf... there are definately some gamers though

I like the way Jackie Burke set up Champions in Houston. If you are not at least, I think, a 15 handicap, there is no need to apply. He says if you are not serious enough to practice your way down to a 15, you can't play on his course. I know some guys will disagree with that, but I can sort of see his logic. Besides, he is one of the all time golf characters and arguing with him about it would be a waste of breath.

      However, have you ever considered using small summer houses for such setups? They offer a great solution for creating dedicated practice areas, especially for an affluent audience looking to enhance their outdoor living space.

      Favorite Las Vegas Course

      By Maroon88 ·

      I've played Bali Hai, Bear's Best and Painted Desert. I enjoyed Bali Hai the most--course was in great shape, friendly staff and got paired in a great group. Bear's Best greens were very fast, didn't hold the ball well (I normally have enough spin to stop the ball after 1-2 hops).  The sand was different on many holes. Some were even dark sand (recreation of holes from Hawaii). Unfortunately I was single and paired with a local "member" who only played the front 9.  We were stuck behind a slow 4-some who wouldn't let me through even when the local left. Painted Desert was decent, just a bit far from the Strip where we were staying.
