2-3 miles, takes bout 5 minutes.
However, my nearest course (which I'm not a member of) is only bout a mile away (I can see it from my room). Horrible course sadly.

I have Blue Mountain (part of Crown Golf) 5 minutes from my door but don't like the course and think I've only played it 4 times in 10 years. The range is terrible too.

I'd rather drive half an hour to play a decent course than walk 3 minutes to play a goat track....
(Mines less than 2 miles away, 5 minutes in the car)

Mines about 9 miles and takes 13-15 mins depending on the lorries/tractors cos its out on the sticks.

2 miles.......5mins. Any further & I doubt it would be quite so tempting to go play 5/6 holes on a summer nt.......
About a mile for me, just the other side of town.

I've got about 15-20 mins drive to get to my club which is about 5 miles away. Same time would take me well into the golf heartlands of East Lothian. Now there's a thought....

8 minute walk to 2nd / 4th tee. 10 minute walk to 1st tee / clubhouse.
I always walk - you never know when there might be a pint or two consumed post round.

Having read the responce to this thread I am surprised to find that at 16 miles and about 30 minutes I am one of the furthest travellers.
Its something I must look at for next year, I have two good tracks quite close to me (less than 5 miles) that I should look at. Although more expensive to join I would recoup that money back through the money I would save on petrol.
I try to get down to my course during the week, after work, but by the time I get home from work and travel to the course I dont get there until about 6.20, the closer courses mean I could probably play more golf. Its a difficult decision because my present course is in superb condition, with on-going improvements, any thoughts anyone!!

Im about 4-5 miles away from my club. Getting there can take anything from 10-15 minutes. Perhaps a bit quicker on a clear day.
