Default Golf Clubs for Visitors

We have a couple flying in for a spur of the moment visit. They will NOT be bringing golf clubs, but would like to play 4 days December 26-29. Can anyone help us find a set of male and a set of female golf clubs to be used for four days? We have tried the Villages Country Clubs, but they will not allow their rental clubs to be used outside of The Villages.

Why golf outside The Villages?

Since they already have dates, why not bring their own clubs, and I agree with Boogie Shooter, why golf anywhere but The Villages?

We were just trying to save them a little money. For visitors it's more expensive and getting tee times on the executive courses is more difficult.

Give yourself a wide time window at a lot of executive courses and you should get a tee time, every time.

Default extra golf clubs

if I were there, I'd be happy to lend you our extra sets - we keep 2 sets for tenants and visitors. However, I'm not there yet. I would suggest asking your neighbors or posting a notice at your neighborhood pool, or just bringing it up during any activities you do, or while you're floating around on a noodle in the pool.

Most people probably aren't wild about letting strangers use their regular clubs, but I think there are lots of people who keep an extra set for visitors, and probably wouldn't mind loaning those.
