The Golf Card - Play Discount GolfWhy Join The Golf Card? Play More Golf for Less If you are an avid golfer, you've come to the right place. Golf Card is a club of avid golfers who use the combined strength of our 100,000+ members to play more golf for less money. We do this through a network of more than 3,500 affiliated golf courses and resorts throughout North America, who recognize our members as a special breed of golfers. And award our members with discounts on golf, lodging, pro shop purchases, clubhouse dining, and range privileges. What Golf Card Members Are Saying"I accomplished
a lifelong goal of playing at least one round of golf on more than 1,000
different golf courses. I couldn't have done it without my Golf
Card membership, which got me valuable cost savings and, just as importantly,
provided me with course directions." "My husband, Jack, and
I have been Golf Card members since 1986 and have enjoyed playing at so
many great courses using our card. We now live in Florida and play all
we can. Thank you for a great card and great magazine." "In 1974 my wife, Fern,
and I joined Golf Card and enjoyed many rounds of golf together. Although
Fern passed away in 1984, I've played many rounds since then and have
enjoyed good service at all the courses I've played." "The wife and I saved
hundreds on golf and it hasn't even been a year since we joined. Thank
you." "Each year we travel to
an area with the intention of using our Golf Card to find courses we might
never have discovered without it. We've traveled to Canada, Alaska, Florida,
Mexico and all places in between, always using the Golf Card to play courses
along the way. Last year, we drove our motorhome to Gaylord, Michigan,
playing golf 29 times using the Golf Card. We hope to continue to find
new courses each year and return to our favorites. The Golf Card is the
best investment we've ever made." "My husband, David, and
I have been members of the Golf Card since 1996 and thoroughly enjoy the
great courses here in Michigan that we wouldn't otherwise play if we weren't
members. We tell all our family, friends and business associates about
the Golf Card." "My wife and I purchased
the Golf Card in anticipation of our retirement. We'd purchased a 33-foot
fifth-wheel trailer and planned to play golf all over the United States.
We thought you'd be interested to know that we've maintained a record
of the courses and our savings as a result of using the Golf Card. Those
savings, in less than eight months, are currently in excess of $1,000.
Anyone who says the Golf Card isn't a good value needs to talk to us.
We'll be happy set them straight. "We wouldn't be without
this card, and we have lots of friends who feel the same way. My husband,
Ralph, and I retired in 1985, and since then we've traveled in our motorhome
to every state in the continental United States and most of the Canadian
provinces, and we've played golf in almost all of them." "My husband and I have
been Golf Card members for a year. While we were skeptical at first, we've
been extraordinarily pleased with our membership. In our first year as
members, we saved over $2,000. We travel frequently for business and pleasure
and have never had a problem using the Golf Card wherever we go. Thanks
for making golf much more affordable." "On our trip this summer,
we used Golf Card nine times and were very pleased. The people at all
the courses we traveled to were courteous. We followed the rules and called
ahead for tee times. Only one day were we told that we couldn't use our
Golf Card until the afternoon, and that was on a weekend. We weren't upset-weekends
are very busy, even in small towns. The toughest course we played was
Lake Powell National in Page, Arizona. All in all, we had a wonderful
trip." "We retired and left Southlake,
Texas, with the objective to "See the USA" and play golf several
times a week. Two years later, we've each played 265 rounds of golf in
25 states. We've played courses in such Golf Card strongholds as the Pennsylvania
Poconos, Myrtle Beach, the Golden Isles of Georgia, the Orlando area,
Virginia's Shenandoah Valley and Gaylord, Michigan. Of those 265 rounds,
91 were played on courses that honored the Golf Card, affording us a savings
of $2,790. We calculate that our two-year Golf Card investment has returned
over 937 percent-a figure we would have been ecstatic to earn on our other
retirement investments." "My husband, Frank, travels
frequently on business, and I get to accompany him at least once a month.
Along the way, we've golfed at affiliated courses in 17 states, from California
to Maine, and have always encountered gracious and accommodating people,
especially when we've called ahead for directions and tee times. Thanks
to the Golf Card, we've experienced more of the "local flavor"
of these areas. As long as we can swing a club, we'll be Golf Card members." "My husband, Bob, has
been a Golf Card member for over 20 years and has enjoyed playing Golf
Card courses from Canada to Arizona, and New York to Florida. He started
playing golf at age 52 and is now playing with a 15-handicap. Over the
years he has had holes-in-one on three different courses. In 1998 he shot
his age on four different courses, including his home course, Muncie Elks,
where he shot his age or better several times. He is 83 years young." "We've been Golf Card
holders for more than 10 years, and our membership has been very useful
to us. We have an Airstream trailer and are especially fond of playing
affiliated courses by day and spending the nights in campgrounds along
the way. We call ahead to make tee times, and usually golf courses are
very accommodating. We play 18 holes, often having lunch after nine holes.
Then we resume our travels to the next campground. In this way, we can
cover about 300 miles per day and play 18 holes of golf. We've traveled
this way about three months a year for the past 10 years or so." "Thank you for the 17
years we've used Golf Card and the discounts we've received (over $10,000)
playing at the many wonderful courses through the United States and Canada." "I just wanted to inform
you that upon playing golf with my Golf Card for the first time in Maryland,
I got a hole-in-one! My wife and I got Golf Cards as Christmas presents
from my wife's parents. They live in New York, and we played on the card
several times over the summer in New York. But the first time I played
here in my home state, at White Plains Golf Course, the hole-in-one happened.
I've been playing golf for 25 years, and this is my first hole-in-one-and
it was with the card!" "We travel extensively
and use our Golf Card often in the United States and Canada. We've tried
other cards that offer golfing privileges, but Golf Card is the best." "My husband
and I have been Golf Card members since 1997 and are enjoying its privileges.
During the winter we reside in Sun City, Arizona, and in the summer travel
via our motorhome throughout the United States and Canada. During the
past two years, we've played more than two dozen golf courses in Canada,
from Cranbrook Golf Course in Cranbrook, British Columbia, to Beauty Bay
Golf Course in Kenora, Ontario. We've also played the affiliated course
in Rarotonga, Cook Islands. Where else can you receive another shot (no
penalty) if your ball hits a pig off the tee or a guide wire from the
tee or fairway? I can't tell you how much we've enjoyed our Golf Card
membership. Be assured, we'll continue routing our travels so we can golf
more Golf Card courses. If sometime you should see a 34-foot Pinnacle
motorhome towing a silver 1995 Camry, it's us heading for a Golf Card
affiliated golf course!" |
