I'd play it for £75 (at least once)
Cheaper than many tracks. In fact I'm surprised Trump International is that cheap!!!

Donald Trump is not stupid. A lot of players paying £75 a round makes more money than hardly anybody playing it at £320 a round (admittedly including B&B in his hotel). I live quite close to The Grove in Hertfordshire and that is virtually deserted most of the time, whereas most of the cheaper courses in the area are reasonably busy.

I believe the £75 is only for the local residents during the winter.
What course are you a member off ?

Seems that £95 is the minimum green fee for a non-resident at their hotel. They may have a cheaper rate for Watford residents, but I don't live in that borough.
I'm a member of Batchworth Park in Rickmansworth. As I pay a small fortune in membership fees, but get as much 'free' golf as I want on my home course after that, I tend not to frequent pay and play courses any more.

As you didn't specify, and both courses were mentioned, you could have been referring to either. The courses are both pay and play associated with a hotel. The point is that golf is quite price sensitive, and there a price beyond which most people won't pay, however special the course may be!

Standard high season rate (for non-local) at Trump is £195. Only a bit more than Gleneagles or Castle Stuart, yet the reports I've heard say it's miles better than any of the 3 at Gleneagles and gives Castle Stuart a run for it's money.
Trump won't be ploughing in the kind of money that he has done if he didn't think there will be a long term profit.
Plus it's still cheaper than Kingsbarns.

I've parted with £150 to play there and I don't regret it at all! I really enjoyed it and the course is superb. Played well too which helped.
