Unfortunately, GolfNow's rewards program SUCKS this year!  I played a ton of very high-end free golf last year.  No such thing this year.  Ah well, I still love the convenience.

Sorry. You lost the right to complain for at least a few years. :-D

I have a somewhat flexible schedule so I find myself with an open afternoon or early evening. GolfNow works well to find what is available if I want to try out a new course or am just tired of playing my home course. It's great for a single and has also worked well for a few groups. More information the better, plus it never hurts to save a little money.

They do suck this year. I don't care about a Cleveland discount coupon, the big draw for me was free hot deal rounds, which they don't offer nearly as much anymore.

my get up and go musta got up and went..

Just booked my first tee time using Golf Now for later today. Got a great deal, hopefully it goes well.

Went pretty well. Paid $18 (plus taxes and fees, so a little over $21 all told) for 18 holes with a cart thanks to a hot deal. Tee time was for 12:14, but it was pretty wide open, so they let me out close to 11:30. Booking through the course would have cost $46 for walking, $59 for a cart, so I paid about 30% of the normal price. It looks like for most tee times at that course (the non-hot deals), you're basically getting a free cart for using GolfNow.

[/quote] I briefly glanced at the rewards page. I doubt I'll book enough rounds to get much of anything, but that's not a big deal if I'm saving money anyway. [quote name="David in FL" url="/t/46514/anyone-use-discount-tee-time-sites-like-golfnow-com/30_30#post_979675"]Could mean that the course is closed for maintenance, or even that for some day.....maybe a tournament or something else unusual, they didn't provide any times to GolfNow. Doesn't happen often, but I've seen it on rare occasion down here too.[/quote] I don't think so, just because picking a different day gives me the same thing. My guess is that they're just not in GolfNow's system anymore but they haven't taken the page down.

I've also seen a few courses that were on golfnow last year have switched over to golfhub.  Less convenient as now there are two sites I need to check to find the best deals.  Ah well, the hardships of life.

    • I was laid off two months ago. Good severance, a 90 day layoff announcement regulation the company wanted to avoid so technically I'm still on the payroll for a few weeks, and a bunch of banked PTO, so I'm in a great spot and working on a startup idea I've been batting around with my brother for a while. That means I've got time to get to the gym! I'm at like 60-75 minutes 5x a week of strength training, and either a run or a bunch of time playing soccer or tennis with my daughter on the weekends. Stronger than I've been in forever. Up ~5 pounds of (noticeable!) muscle!
    • Do you have examples of exceptional scores versus their established handicap indexes?
    • Day 539, April 23, 2024 Mirror work once again. When I get back to swings, I'll just do it A. LOT.
    • A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?
