How far do you drive in your cart? Most courses are at least a 30 minute cart ride for me... so that's already an hour in the cart. All of the south courses are an hour minimum for me. And I said within 45 minutes away... many are within 30 miles.

The savings are much more than $15. If you're not a priority member ($850 upfront fee), the cheapest course is $69, the most expensive $80. So you could be saving anywhere from $39 to $50. It's significant if you play multiple times per week.

To be clear - I do play a lot here. I'm just pointing out it's not the "deal" mentioned in the original post.
