You need to compare prices in The Villages to prices at comparable courses just outside the The Villages. When you do that, you realize that it's a really BAD deal. We can play at good courses outside of The Villages for half of the rate here - and many of those courses are better maintained. I'm certainly rethinking my priority membership at this point. |

Value Definition & Meaning | YourDictionary "A fair or proper equivalent in money, commodities, etc., esp. for something sold or exchanged; fair price or return." Based on demand, there are plenty of people who perceive they are getting value when paying to play on TV Championship courses. That's how an economy should work. |

Inflation is killing golf course maintenance budgets.
Fuel is up 100-125% Lawn chemicals - dont know Labor ??? Equipment - my club ordered a piece of lawn equipment for 70,000, two years ago, it came in at 90,000 this fall Because equipment is back ordered, maintenance budgets are up |

Priority rates on most courses has gone up to $49.50 from $47---a 5.3% increase. So, based on current inflation rates, are you "figuring" on not buying any food or gasoline as well????? Fertilizer, gasoline, equipment, and labor are all more expensive----nobody is going to run a golf course at a loss.

$3.25 a round with no membership fee ? How do they do that ? That's fantastic. I had to buy a house to get free golf.

I know a number of people who play the championship courses 4 times a week. My husband plays the championship courses at least 3 times a week. We moved here because of the number of Championship courses.

Southern Oaks is the most expensive?! I go there because they are always open because people do not want to go there.
