Bonifay cart tentals
 
1st $28 for a cart is a rip off!
2nd Bonifay has club car carts that are awful to drive. Clunky loud touchy brakes.
At least the other courses have nicer Yamaha's

You sure it was $28.00? Supposed to be $12.00 per person or $24.00 for two people sharing a cart. It’s even listed on Golfthevillages website.

Plus 7% tax = $25.68

Actually not all courses have Yamaha rental carts, some have club car because that's all they could get due to Yamaha supply production issues. Secondly ALL courses charge $12 plus tax per rider so regardless of the course, two golfers will be charged a total of approx $26 for 18 holes.
Your whining is deplorable.

THe cart is supposed to get you from hole to hole which I am guessing it did just fine. :)

Get your own cart and quit complaining. No one is forcing you to use the carts they have available. Like my dad used to say, some people would complain if you hung them with a new rope...

:ohdear::ohdear:

Maybe they don't live here long enough to own one.

Maybe they are waiting for it to come in.

Maybe their cart broke down.

Maybe

$6 a person per 9 holes is not bad considering people pay $4 per 9 holes to drive there own cart if they don’t have a trail pass. As someone said, you can walk for free. You are missing out on the fun if you don’t have a cart of your own.

tsmall22204 06-06-2022 04:27 AM

My dad said the same thing.

Cost
 
20,000 for a new cart is more than I paid for my car, I can see why some people just rent especially if they don't golf every single day like many people do. But as they say if you don't like the cart you're given, buy your own .

And maybe they just live to whine and complain all the time….

Why is $28.00 a ripoff. Do you have knowledge of the cost of doing business, profit margins, rates at comparable golf courses?

A lot goes into determining the price of everything, golf cart rentals included. I was in the golf business back in 2009 and recall the rates being around $20.00. Considering how much minimum wage and the cost of gasoline have gone up, I don't see an $8.00 increase over 13 years do be unusual.

Helps Make Buying Decision
 
There is some good that comes from renting a Club Cart at Bonifay--you'll know, in the first five seconds of operation, why so many people buy Yamaha.

Then golf at the other courses.

Calisport 06-14-2022 10:10 PM

maybe the tentles have less golf car features

joelfmi 06-24-2022 10:19 AM

what you stated he can walk it was not a very intelligent or sensible comment. considering that the villages advertise that the village is the most friendless place to live.

Rounded up to $28 to make the complaint sound better.
