Cost is $60 per Couple Includes cart fee, green fee, range balls and three course post-round dinner!

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 play day).  And the place never burned down, nor was it broken into.  I suppose if they’d given privileges to active military, it wouldn’t have been invaded by foreign armies nearly as frequently.

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.

Play now while it’s almost affordable.

The 200 round package is a great deal, but it’s a lot of golf, and $12,000 is a whole lot of money. You’d need to get an awfully big group together to make this work. The 25 round block is more realistic, and even if you are a VSGA member, you’re still paying $79/round for the bulk of the year (see below).

Summer rates for VSGA members:

Monday thru Friday

• March: $55.50
• April: $65.50
• May – October: $73.50
• November: $60.50
• December: $52.50

Saturday-Sunday

• March: $58.00
• April: $68.00
• May – October: $79.00
• November: $61.00
• December: $55.00

Everyone likes free stuff, don’t they?  My daughter went to one of these clinics last year and really enjoyed it.  I could not go, but my wife did and said the instructors seemed to be pretty knowledgeable.  If nothing else, it’s a good excuse to go play the short course while you’re waiting.
