New Golf Rates this week!
 
Haven't seen it published anywhere:
So, I called golf administration today to inquire about evening rates.
Nice lady says after 3PM from May – December.
I say that’s what website says, but “I hear” that is not true.
She says YES, it is on website.
I say starters are telling people that it is now 4:20pm.
She says let me check with boss.
Then she says it is 4:20 pm at all but 4 courses now.
I say they put announcements regarding new 27 hole wave, straight 18, point suspension, etc. on website everyday. WHY NOT tell people you have adjusted the time/rate? Is it a secret?
She says boss says it was 4:20 pm last year.
I tell her boss should look at website THIS YEAR and inform golfers that rate between 3:00 and 4:20 has changed at ALL but 4 courses. Funny how rates were posted for MAY – DEC. and before May even ends they are increasing the rates!
First 3 weeks of May it’s $9.50 for 9 after 3 PM. BUT NOT THIS WEEK!
Poor planning.
At least inform people that you didn’t plan ahead, so they don’t find out when they arrive at the course.
Is that too hard?
End of Rant.

Don't have a stroke with your first post.

Read the full rate sheet.

*Prices subject to change without notice, all prices include sales tax.

UNLIMITED PLAY will be available at the 18-hole rate during the evening wave. Play is based on availability (at the same course) and is good for the rest of the day. This includes tee times after 3:00pm at Tierra Del Sol and Orange Blossom Hills

Nowhere does it state 3:00 is afternoon wave for the other courses. The two that have after 3:00 do not have "wave" pricing. They use "before noon, noon to 3:00, and after 3:00".

No conspiracy to see here.

Sorry I'm not to smart but this how we have been playing so far. 3pm $19 or 9.50. Evening wave starts at 4.20 which includes unlimited play. I'm I wrong or is there is no more 3pm?

You are correct. When there were only a straight 18 instead of the wave, the evening rates started at 3. Once the courses went back to implementing the waves, the evening was moved to 420 to allow time for the afternoon waves to crossover.
