I have read that (obviously) some think it is worth it and some not. To each his own. I guess the accountant in me is coming out! Here is what I came up with:

This is based on playing twice a week.
10/15 - 12/30 Approx. 11 weeks = 22 rounds saving $10/rd. = $220;
01/01 - 04/30 Approx. 17 weeks = 34 rounds saving $15/rd. = $510;
05/01 - 10/14 Approx. 24 weeks = 48 rounds saving $ 5/rd. = $240.

Total savings = $970. Cost = $740 = savings of $230 - not including the savings of trail fees.

Does this make sense or am I losing it?
The "real" savings is: Getting your desired tee time on the course of your choice.
