Tired of spending a fortune on golf, but just can’t stop playing it? If your answer is positive, maybe it’s about time you thought about budget golf. Playing golf on a shoestring budget doesn’t have to be a quixotic quest. More importantly, playing golf on a tight budget shouldn’t leave the golfer begging for better quality. Cheaper fees for several more rounds of golf, less expensive brands of golf equipment and budget golf vacations are not unavailable. First, begin with the equipment. Many golfers mistakenly purchase the most expensive golf balls available on the market in the deluded hope to improve their game. Golf clubs are another major purchase that golfers really spend for. All of these pieces of equipment are purchased at the highest price possible in the hope that these expensive products will help improve their performance on the golf course. But are these products really as effective as the packaging and advertisements portray them to be? Not necessarily. You can buy a set of used clubs instead of new or even renting. The long term investment will pay off if you buy rather than rent. Don’t spend your money on fancy golf accessories. And don’t rent a cart - walk it! You’ll get more exercise and save some money in the process. Instead of buying at a retail store, you can also search online to find many discount golf clubs of brand names such as Taylor Made, Mizuno, Cobra, and more. You will usually find a better deal online that you will find in any local shops. If you’re looking for a tournament, try nine-holes. Nine-hole tournaments take half the time of 18-hole rounds and usually cost less. You certainly don’t need to buy all of the latest golf training gear. Just getting a bucket of balls and honing your skills at the driving range or putting greens can provide more benefit. So now that our golfer has saved some money on golf equipment, it’s time to find a golf course that provides lower rates and more rounds. Although it seems as if annual rates and golf course fees skyrocket every so often, there are, in fact, a lot of golf courses that offer the same quality facilities and grounds for much lower prices. There’s no need to sacrifice quality just to fit your budget. Bear in mind that quality is still the most important for your playing pleasure and your safety as well. Pasture golf, for one, is an alternative to the manicured lawns of ordinary golf courses. If pasture golf isn’t your thing, there are still golf courses around your area that may not charge as much and are not as well known but can provide service at par. Start with the course you play on. You can have a great game of golf and not play on Pinehurst or Pebble Beach. If you just want to play, try a municipal or public course. Your greens fees will be cut by at least half. Take advantage of any deals the courses may have. They’re not so busy mid-week, or in the late fall, so try to go when everyone else won’t be there. And lastly, go light on lunch and the nineteenth hole. Many golfers find the actual golf playing to be less expensive than the meal and the cocktails after the round. Be mindful of these costs - they add up and you’ll be happier about it tomorrow! More golf tips in Golf Great Sale. Thanks for your reading!
