The above post begs the question, what are the courses within a thirty mile radius of the bubble that will benefit from the new Villages golf rates? To qualify the courses need to be similar quality and conditions, cost significantly less (including a golf cart), and be relatively easy to get to within about a 40 minute car ride.

Any course that doesn’t meet the above criteria would not be an option when we can load up our clubs into our own golf cart and drive to 12 different courses between 5 and 40 minutes away.
