I am thinking I will get more exercise if I just don't pay the 6 mo. or yearly fee and pay the trail use fee ($3.50 each per 9 holes - or did it go up)? when I am subbing my league (which I do a lot) or when it's really hot or looks like threatening weather.

Still undecided. It covers the whole household, so consider if it is just you or you and your spouse (or significant other). In my case, he doesn't play much (but maybe he would play less if I didn't pay the trail fee)? Am leaning toward paying the 6 mo fee (ours is up sometime in January), then walking for a bit in Sept/Oct and getting one for Nov-April next year. Need to do the math, but then again, if I pay for it, I won't walk as much. Some of you may be more disciplined.

Interesting take. I hadn't thought of it that way. I'm not currently a golfer, but plan to be when I arrive so the trail fee is something I am interested in looking at.
