None of the "Championship" courses here are worth $64, especially since you use your own cart. Marginal conditions, boring designs and resort pricing. No thanks.

$50 + tax. Obviously you have the Priority membership. Don’t know if you are new to The Villages but the courses in the “middle part” especially Havana are like that every year at this time. It’s awfully early to have to aerate and topdress those greens. Some say the reason is they don’t water enough

So did I, and it is not all that bad. Seems like a lot of people want Augusta National conditions at muni prices.

Full disclosure: I've played Baltusrol, Bethpage Black, Winged Foot, Westchester CC, Oak Hill, Shinnecock Hills, Pinehurst #2 and 5, PGA National, Copperhead, TPC Sawgrass and Bay Hill among others, so I think I know golf course conditions.

Actually, every course in Mid-Florida (probably all of Florida) jacks up the prices during the "Winter" months. Its a supply and demand thing -- half of the country can not play golf in the Winter, so higher prices. Is this really that shocking?
