$2 Greens Fees – Youth On Course

http://www.ncgafoundation.org/youth_on_course.php

This is a fantastic idea, and one that every area needs to look into adopting. Fewer kids playing right now means fewer golfers to support the game in thirty years. Personally, I grew up working at a private club to get playing privileges. If I hadn’t done that, there’s no way I could have grown [...]

Independence Honors Local Heros

http://www.independencegolfclub.com/kemper/courses/view.asp?id=123&page=2237 (scroll to bottom)

This is something I can definitely get behind. $30 for greensfees, cart and range balls, Monday – Wednesday for active military personal, police officers, fire fighters, and emergency medical technicians with valid identification.

The club I grew up working at gave local police and fire fighters free play on Mondays (course closed, staff [...]

Back 9 and Biscuits at Independence

http://www.independencegolfclub.com/kemper/courses/view.asp?id=123&page=2237

OK, if I read this one correctly, Independence will let you start on #10 for the first two hours of times on Saturdays and Sundays. And if you’re willing to flip the nines and end on a middle-iron par 3, they’ll give you a biscuit sandwich. Might as well get a free breakfast.

Swing For Your Cause at Stonehouse

Stonehouse Golf Club and NetworkWilliamsburg have an interesting concept. Charity tournaments that benefit the charity of your choosing. These are $55/player events and $20 goes to a charity that you pick from a list. Their next event is April 18. This is such a good idea, I may actually consider ending my boycott of Stonehouse. [...]

Golfsmith goes way, way out on a limb

http://www.golfsmith.com/ps/display_page.php?page_num=sergio_promotion&scode=EPS912MA

I suppose Garcia is Taylormade’s biggest star, but does anyone really expect him to win at Augusta? I don’t see them making that same offer for Mickelson and Callaway. Ogilvy and Cobra. Tiger and Nike. On the other hand, a free R9 does sound pretty good right now…
