Default phone system works just fine

and takes maybe a minute more out of your (retired) day. I play about twice a week, sometimes another day at the last minute, usually executive courses.

For the last minute (same day), you have to call each course or just show up and wait for a no-show or cancelled spot anyway, whether you have computer access or not.

And, if you only golf regularly a couple of times a week, you have very few points and generally get a tee time unless you are putting in too narrow a time window or choice of courses.

I really thought that once I was here full time I would get the on-line computer access (currently $8/mo), but really haven't found it necesssary. I still might in the future, but there is so much else to do here that I don't want to lock myself into too many tee times, plus I'm kind of a fair weather golfer would sometimes rather go when I feel in the mood.
