Let’s say you had a decent sum, let’s say £1500 or so to spend on golf
Hypothetically, which would you rather, and why?
a) spend most of your money and focus on improving your golf ability (be it many golf lessons or optimised fitted decent equipment) but to play almost all your golf on not famous nor particularly ‘good’ courses..maybe as a Green Fee only or a municipal courses membership for most of your golf
b) spend your money on playing lots of ‘once in a lifetime’ elite courses...Open venues, Surrey/Berkshire Heathlands and others in the Top 100 in GB....but not getting beyond 16-17 HCap. And not getting fitted for your clubs. Obvs you’re playing ‘less’ golf but on much, much better courses
C) spending the money on a membership of a good well-conditioned local course. Not Championship standard and not really nationally famous but playing lots of golf albeit keeping at a similar standard (16Hcap no lessons/ no new equipment) as in Option B)
Edit: I find this a constantly hard Q I often ask myself. Money and time is finite. I can see real benefit and pros of all options!
