Looking for some advice on golf while staying at Disney. I'm not new to this as I go every year, but this time the in-laws are flying down and we don't have plans to rent a car. We're staying at Disney Polynesian which is right across the street from the Palm and Magnolia and they offer free shuttles which is good. My issue is those courses are disgustingly overpriced and I can't find any packages for multiple rounds there. Not to mention, I'd rather play a variety (in my opinion the Palm is the only course worth playing, ONCE)

Does anyone know what options are down there? Is it just best to Uber to another course nearby or are their packages out there for guests that are staying at a resort?  Are there "golf only packages" where I can pre-purchase like 4 rounds in a week at different courses?

We go down every year.  I think my father in law uses Tee Time USA to book.

we stayed on Disney once when our families came down to enjoy the parks. 

I believe we saw Uber’s coming in and off the resort a lot.  I just don’t know how spendy they are compared to Ubering in other parts of the country. 

Driver: Taylormade RBZ :tmade: Irons: Titleist AP1 :titleist: PW-4 All other clubs are needing upgrading as I am able to afford it.

There are tons of courses in the area, and if you do some internet legwork, you can find deals. Start with Golfnow just to get a list of courses: https://www.golfnow.com/tee-times/best-golf-courses-in-orlando/search

Personally, I would rent a car, you'll have far more flexibility, and if you rent outside the airport, it will be cheaper than Uber.

If you're willing to drive, there are good deals outside Orlando. For instance, I really liked Harmony Golf Preserve, which is only about $50-$60, but feels like a real country club. I also like OCN.

    • I’d go with the Titleist if you liked the look of the blades but were suffering with distance. They should be a little more forgiving than a full blade and still retain some workability. Also remember to consider the shafts each have as this will be a big contributor to how they feel. Clemsonfan is right though… get fit or spend a bit of time on a launch monitor 🤙
    • Day 28: 2026.01.30 Managed to make time for a few swings out back today. Need a proper bit of range time this weekend.
    • Day 30, 1/30.  Six minutes this morning hitting a few more range balls, indoors, off a mat, into the net.  Did this before leaving the house.

    • Hi All my New Year’s resolution was to start playing golf again. I’ve caught the bug and am really enjoying hitting balls at a couple of my local ranges.looking forward to getting back out on courses in the spring. Based in the UK and 38 years old, I’ve been playing since I was a kid. Best handicap I’ve held is 2 in my mid 20s. Over the past 10 years I’ve played once or twice a year, sometimes with friends or for work. Could shoot 4-5 over, but just as easily shoot 15-20 over. I’ve moved to South Wales and am very lucky to be near some world class links courses, which gives me even more motivation to get playing again! I will start looking for a local coach in my area when I have more time to invest, but I recalled scouring this forum a few years ago and finding some good tips and advice so wanted to give it a try to see if there were any glaring issues I could fix in the meantime!  A few swings below… one from 1st week Jan and one from today. I have fixed my P1 takeaway to my liking and am now working on what I see as pretty severe early extension & hip thrust. Also terrible hip rotation. I’d like confirmation that this is indeed a problem and and suggestions on a few good drills. Thanks for reading 🙂 I've been Playing Golf for: 30+ years My current handicap index or average score is: 10ish over My typical ball flight is: mid The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: push right with irons, hooks and push with driver!  Videos:
