Paid $90 for 18 @ Chambers Bay in Tacoma, WA.

My first and only links golf experience. Paid $90 to have the course make me look like a fool.

Yes, I would do it again.

Payed $150 to play Cabo Del Sol during my honeymoon about 12 years ago. Payed over $100 many times, but I play so much free golf it doesn't kill me to shell out some cash when to opportunity to play somewhere nice presents itself.

$180 to play the K-Club in dublin out of season.

Was a mistake, but I was on vacation so meh.

Next time im in Ireland I would rather spend that money on a links course.  Aside from the name/Ryder cub being there, the K-Club wasn't very spectacular.

I think I've paid more, some place, and don't remember where, but I paid $60 to play Troon North in Scotsdale, one hot August day.  For sure, one of the nicest courses I've been on.

I love to hate this game!

$225 - Spyglass, Bandon Dunes

Spyglass - ice plants.

Bandon - wind.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

Back in 2000 I was in San Fran for a job interview & I stayed a couple extra days, having never been there before. I paid $85 to play Half Moon Bay. I loved it so much I went back the next day & paid another $85 to play it.

Paid about $250 for St Andrews, and about the same for Carnoustie the following year.

Carnoustie is the better course but St Andrews for the atmosphere nails it by miles.

Same here.  I try to catch the fall twilight rate but it's tough because they start so late that it's tough to finish the course before dark unless your foursome is hitting well.  I have a wedding at Turning Stone this year and am looking forward to a round at Shenandoah or Kaluhyat as part of the festivities.

$350 or so to play Whistling Straits - Straits course.  The course was immaculate, and had a great time.  Pete Dye is one cruel designer though.  You miss in the wrong spot and you will pay for it.

    • One thing is clear; the only time anyone cares about the LIV guys is when they come over to the PGAT to do anything meaningful. Then they go back to peaceful slumber until it's time for the next major. Tell me BDC get's even 1% of yesterday excited about anything LIV and I say you are a LIVbot.  "You ain't running"  "Ain't nothin to chase, ain't nothing chasing me". 
    • Ass clown status? I have a lifetime exemption.
    • Dude, if you don't pull driver on every non-par-3, you are going to lose your ass clown status. 
    • Fair enough. You could be right.  Although, Cam Smith, to his credit, admitted it. His quote was something to the effect of "LIV Golf ruined my game. I have no drive what so ever to practice." I'm paraphrasing a little, but that was basically what he said. 
    • Okay, I gave this a try today.  Just for clarity sake I used a "Spin-the-wheel" picker ap on my phone to choose which order to do the distances. Then I used my Voice Caddie SC4, which I think is pretty good. Lastly, I used carry distance not total distance. I finished 9 over par.  The very first number generated by the ap was 125. Which I hit to 123 and made a birdie. I was like "This is going to be easy." Then I got the 160 which I hit to 171 and went from 1 under to 1 over just like that.  90 yards - par 95 yards - par 100 yards - par 105 yards - bogey 110 yards - par 115 yards - double 120 yards - par 125 yards - birdie 130 yards - par 135 yards - bogey 140 yards - double 145 yards - bogey 150 yards - par 155 yards - birdie 160 yards - double  165 yards - bogey 170 yards - bogey 175 yards - par Overall a fun little game. If you have an SC4 it will let you enter in a distance as a target and record your distance for you. Then once the picker ap tells you you've done all the distances you simply add up your score off the SC4 ap. Easy-peasy.  BTW - It was hotter than a snake's ass in a wagon rut out there today.
