Free towel while you play at a public course?

[phillyk]

I'm curious at how many courses TST Community have played that give out free towels when they play?

My course gives out free towels for use on the course, but sometimes they are all used up.  We trade them for clean ones every Thursday, so if it rains a lot, we may not have towels to give.  I have seen people get really pissed when we run out.  I mean, they didn't come to golf here just for a free towel right? I mean it's a nice perk when available, but I don't think they should expect it every time.  You should come to a course prepared, especially if rain is in the forecast. 

I have only seen my course give out towels, though.

I have never heard of it.

My home course provides towels in the carts, one per golfer.  I always have multiple towels hanging off my bag so it's not a big problem when they run out but it is nice to have a towel you can use and not have to worry about washing yourself.

Most of the courses I play have the towel thing, but all of them only have towels for golfers who use one of their carts.

With the current owners of my course, I'm grateful for toilet paper.

Public courses?  None that I can think of.  A towel in the cart and/or available for players seems to be the province of private clubs in SE Michigan.

A couple of the nicer courses I play have provided towels. Maderas was the last one and several in Mexico

Towels in carts, quite a few.

BTW, I hope people aren't taking those "free" towels home.  That's not the intent!

Mt. Washington course puts a towel to use in the carts at times. I don't think it is all the time, just rainy days.

Many private and a few of the top end public or semi-private courses provide towels in North Jersey/PA/NY area.

I've seen it and I typically do t use the towels. Usually well worn towels rolled up in the cart. Never considered them free just part of the cart stuff like ball washer, GPS, fresh pencil etc.

I've played a few courses that have towels in the cart in my area.

Not technically free, but Ive seen a few courses that have towels for use by players. Some even have cold ones in out on the course in coolers. That was f'king beautiful.
