£75 for Hoylake in a couple of weeks is the most I have played. I don't think there is a limit on what I would pay...but to spend a lot of money, the course would have to be pretty special.

Paid £110 to play Royal Lytham a year, maybe 2, ago.

Most I would pay would be about £200 I reckon. Going over the £200 barrier would take some thinking about!

Birkdale us £135 in October so that will be the highest I've paid..

Paying £220 to play The Old, New and Jubilee in April. Not sure what the breakdown is per course but wouldn't pay much more. I like the idea but, knowing golf, imagine having an absolute mare of a round!
Paid the same to play the Old, Jubilee and Castle in October. I think the Old is £110, and the other two work out at £55 each. We also get £16 worth of vouchers for food and drink in the Clubhouse, so not a bad deal.

Don't want to appear a big time Charley cos I'm not but if someone offered me and my boy the chance to play Augusta I think I would pay £5k. I'd rather have a crap car and wonderful memories than something better to drive and nothing in the locker between the ears.

So if Mrs Rice is running a guest introduction for Charidee day then I'm her man

Yes was pleasantly surprised to get the email about vouchers for food etc. Really looking forward to it now and got The Belfry before so quite a tidy month of golf!

Don't have a specific figure in mind for a one off treat but maybe around the £200 mark

If it was like many say such as Augusta then that's a once in a lifetime so would go a bit higher but I'll never actually know what id be willing to go to until someone offers me the chance

i don't play many away courses anymore as i pay nearly £1000 green fees at my club so begrudge paying at another course unless its an open and the green fees are cheap.

Paid £150 for Trump last year, worth every penny and might go back this year.

£133 for The Old and Eden at St Andrews in 5 weeks time.

Most i will pay is the $500 for Pebble Beach in the next few years and as said by someone else, Augusta could name their price and I would pay it!

Woburn was my limit for a days golf never mind one round, memory is crap but think it was £135 or something around that.

I wouldnt pay more than £60 inc food as by the time you factor in petrol etc. If I got to a decent handicap then it would be different as I would be able to do them justice then.

would happily pay £200 for the right course, paid £80 for Hillside and £90 for North Berwick, but would pay more for Muirfield, RCD etc.

Saying that, got St Andrews Old, New & Jubilee on the first weekend of November for £155, which I think is a bargain.

I paid £240 for birkdale day last summer, right at the top end of my intended budget.
I am tempted by 36 hole comp day at sunningdale but £270 plus travel and stay is pushing my like him HID at present.

Have a great day at muirfield tomorrow one and all! :lol:

Paid £200 for both Sunningdale courses. I live almost on the doorstep so the add on in terms of petrol negligible. Was it worth it? Not the way I played but in terms of aura, clubhouse atmosphere and test of golf then yes. I don't play these marque courses often and so it was a big splurge. It would depend on the course but I doubt I'd go much more than £150 anymore

I can't justify a big outlay what with the family and all, I'd just feel guilty.

The most I've paid for a single round would have been the GM Meet at Hillside last year, £60 or £80?
