All I have to do is ask Google for the phone number for the course I want, and I'm connected.  No hassle with trying to type on the phone, something I only do when  I have no other choice.  I'm not a texting addict - it's easier to just call the course.  If I'm at home I go directly the course website and pick the time I want, not the block of times from a discounter.  For me, that's more important than the discount.  Then too, I get my discounts from my Avid Golfer Passport as long as I'm playing here in Colorado.

The courses I play recently have their own web interface. Municipal course- county run.

I'll use GolfNow from time to time, if the price is ridiculously good. Usually on a whim.

FWIW, I generally dislike incentives like miles or gift cards. My trash company had something like that for a while. It was complex to figure out how much I was earning toward rewards, and after a couple years, it seemed like I was partially on my way to getting $5 off on an order of $50 or more at Applebee's. Woohoo.   The amount of business one would need to do to get a reward that is significant is usually way more than I'm likely to do, so I just end up thinking what a lot of overhead to maintain such a system. I'd prefer the company just stay lean and mean, and focus on the core business at hand (not razzle dazzle me with frills like reward points).

Thank you so much for the feedback, it is really appreciated. I think we can make it clearer on the website as to how much you will earn.

We are adding gift cards as a reward next week. Just to give you an idea of the value: the minimum reward is a $5 gift card and on some tee times you can earn up to a $100 gift card on 1 foursome.

I hope you play well this weekend and enjoy the US Open!

There are not a lot of courses where I live, but there are some. The on line tee times apps send me "deals" that turn out never to apply to where I live. That's annoying enough to uninstall the app right there/

I don't like having to pay in advance, even for a solo round. I'm kind of a cash transaction type of guy.  But I use GolfNow for cheap deals and am forced to use a credit card when I do.

    • #4 - 1st hole at Kingsbarns I rolled in a 15 footer for birdie. Showed my caddie an old guy could still play a bit. #3 - 18th hole at Basin Harbor Club, Vergennes, VT. I had played matches against my nephew over the years. He had never beaten me although through the years he had become a long hitting teenage golfer. I was 1 up but bunkered near the 18th green. My nephew had a long putt for birdie. I splashed out of the bunker to 4 feet. He rolled his first putt close and I gave him the par. Sadly for him, I rolled mine in and won our last match. He went off to college and then Europe for a Ph. D. It was our last match. Family champion forever. #2 - First playoff hole in the City of Livonia, MI “65 & Over” division. I rolled in an 8 footer that broke about 4-5 inches. #10 Whispering Willows GC. #1  18th hole at TPC Prestancia, Sarasota, FL. A 4 foot slicing putt for par to beat the prior year’s Member/Guest winners and win the Member/Guest with my father at his club. I was having heart palpitations as I played the final hole solo when my father put two in the water. There was never a better golf sight for me when that ball dove into the hole.
    • Finally, wedges getting somewhere. This one a punch gap from 87 yards to about 12 feet. Contact and ball flight absolute restaurant quality. It's nice when grass comes back.
    • Tiger on the Today show today. At 3:25 he says he's working on keeping his arms in more and rotating his hips better. Nice. 
    • Day 11- Slow,  short swings with short practice club.
