Comparing TV championship courses to Orlando specials weekday deals isn't quite fair, as the Orlando courses are also bringing in 200$+ on weekends. So they are making plenty of money. So unless you do the calculations for the average price per round all month, you aren't getting a comparable price. TV courses prices are flat no matter what day of the week you play. . (I may be incorrect, but the difference is not like weekday / weekend in Orlando) So everyone is kind of like comparing where and when they golf occasionally to where they want to play daily. .

stupid human brain biases. . . .
