The outside courses do not have cart access from my garage.
They do not have 19th hole choices like The Villages.
The convenience of The Villages courses is invaluable to me.
The truth is, I just simply would not load my clubs into my car, drive to a course, unload my clubs and carry them to a cart, unload my clubs from a cart and load them into my car, unload them from my car, clean the dirt and grass out of my car and then sit down for lunch. And all that to save $20.00 dollars. I am more sensitive to my convenience than to a 20 dollar bill. I moved to The Villages for retirement, not a part time job as a bag boy.
So: if it is all about money, go outside. If its all about convenience, play here. But, please don't complain that $50.00 is too much to pay for a round of golf. And, I want everything in The Villages to be higher to insure it remains the best retirement place we could find.
