Golf is expensive enough as it is. What are some ways to avoid having to pay fees to book a tee time? It seems like its an illusion that golfnow and related sites are offering "discounted" tee times yet charging you fees that add up to more than you would normally pay.

I paid $3.49 each for three this week. It was a good deal so the additional cost was still below the course's regular price. I had a $10 reward so I played for under $10.

Either take one of the above suggestions or book enough rounds that you avoid the fee! I've booked "hot deal" rounds at a local course that would normally charge in the mid 30's for 10 bucks plus fee, which equals about 13 bucks! What's the problem?

If there is a course that you like then strike up a conversation with the people behind the counter. Ask about the difference in price between online and calling and see if they would be happy to give you the better rate since you are interested in playing there sometimes.

Hi all. I wanted some opinions on how golf courses charge and how you look at it.

It’s their business and they can run it anyway they’d like. I don’t agree with some of the imposed fees you are mentioning, but do you have a choice? Yes, join a private or semi-private country club, choose another public course that satisfies your needs, or grin and bear it at the course you’ve described.
FlyingAce
My semi-private course charges everyone the same fee of $200/round - no twilight, no seniors, no locals, no specials. I have always played as a single and ride alone. If I really want to play at a course for whatever reasons, then I’d have no choice but to pay whatever they want to charge, or find somewhere else to play.

Does raincheck apply to golf bookings?
It will automatically be deducted from the total amount due during the mobile check-in process of your next booking when using Golfpay to check-in. Rainchecks apply only to bookings at the same golf course that issued the credit. Other restrictions may apply.
Can you change your green fees?
Yes, although changing the time and or date may affect your green fees. You must cancel the entire reservation then rebook (not necessarily in that order). If you do not provide at least a 24-hour notice, however, you will lose any booking deposits from the original reservation.
