Discount Golf Vacations

After my post about The Golden Passport to New England Golf, many of you asked if there were similar passbooks offering Discount Golf Vacations and reduced green fees in other areas of the country.

The answer is yes, but I haven’t been impressed by many.

Here’s an exception that you might want to look into: Player’s Pass, which, for a nominal fee, provides deep discounts at hundreds of good-to-excellent golf courses nationwide. Read more →

goldenpassportToday’s tip explains how you can play free golf (and I mean totally free) at some of the top daily-fee golf courses in New England.

Pound Ridge Golf Club is one of the newest courses to play on a New York golf vacation.

I just heard that Pound Ridge Golf Club (poundridgegolf.com), the new public Pete Dye creation located an hour north of New York City, is discounting its peak green fee by nearly 20 percent.

Owned by Ken Wang, Jr., the brother of famous fashion designer Vera Wang, the course is Dye’s first in New York State and, mainly due to environmental constraints, it took more than a decade and $40 million to complete.

The question is…is the final product, which takes dead aim at the area’s many top-tier private courses (and heralded as one of the best of the year by nearly all the major golf magazines) really worth nearly $200 to play on a New York golf vacation?  Read more →
