  • Golf Membership, is it worth it? Prior to becoming a member of a club myself, i've always asked this question. I've seen some of the nicest private golf clubs around the country, from LA to Vero Beach. As a golfer, you always want to play the best the industry has to offer. Can that be obtainable, well, it depends on how much money you have in your bank account. lol A lot of these top rated private courses are very expensive. Some of these courses do that to keep certain groups from our society out and to keep that prestige up. This is a conversation I had with one of the young brothers who invited me to play prior to use have some dinner after our round.

      Nice. What course are you considering? I would ask them if they offer referrals? Some courses don't have the same status as other private courses. That's the main issue I have with the system.

    I’m struggling with joining a membership here in Cali bec there are so many great courses in the Bay and I don’t want to be confined to one…

    • @BlackBirdieGolf
      @BlackBirdieGolf  11 місяців тому +1

      That's a great problem to have. I think most dudes join a club because of a sense of belonging. We all like to be a part of a pack, like a pack of wolves. If you have buddies you play with already, you're in a pack, aka social group already. I shared the same philosophy with you because I want to play different courses because of my channel. I joined a club thinking I'd have access to top rated courses, in the end. I didn't have access to top rated courses.

    Gotta watch out for those cart fees too came close to paying 2500 cart fees in a year in 2019

      $2500, holy crap. That's crazy. I may have to do a deep dive into this even more. 🤦🏾

    • @popsbarrington

      If you’re spending 2500 in cart fees at least you’re getting plenty of usage out of your membership. My issue lately has been having the membership and only getting out a few times a month due to work/travel/etc

    how do you pick one as a single female

    • @BlackBirdieGolf
      @BlackBirdieGolf  9 місяців тому +2

      Most private courses have, "member for a day," or they provide tours. I would go to the course of interest on a nice sat morning around 10am and ask for a tour. Tell them you're interested in becoming a member and ask how many female golfers they have as members? Most private courses have a women's league and tournaments so you will make friends fast. I hope this helped! 💚🏌🏾‍♀️👍🏾

    Pinehurst is the only membership I would consider. 8 courses, reciprocals to other great courses in Carolina. I cant play the same course all the time, just not my thing...

    • @BlackBirdieGolf
      @BlackBirdieGolf  2 роки тому +2

      I agree. When I played the Duke course, the dude I was paired with was a member at Pinehurst. I think it's the best membership in the country. The issue he had was resort guests. It was hard to get tee times sometimes.

    • @chiefnakoma
      @chiefnakoma 2 роки тому +1

      Yeah, I know someone who is a member at Pinehurst and it's very tough to get onto the top courses like #2,4 and 8 as all the tee times are booked by resort guests way in advance.

    • @BlackBirdieGolf
      @BlackBirdieGolf  2 роки тому +1

      Yeah bro. That's pretty wack. The other courses are nice also. I need to play #5. I heard it was dope. Even being a member at Pinehurst won't get you on Seminole or pine valley. The golf membership politics are BS. 💚⛳✌🏾

    I think ya gotta love the sport, as for the money ya gotta spend it someplace on some kind of hobby. I work at a club but have no interest in playing. I suck at it and thats fine hahah i know my limits. 👍🏻 yes they are very expensive, what blows my mind is the people who have multiple memberships. 👍🏻

    • @BlackBirdieGolf

      Where's my invite? Yeah, people in this industry have tons of cash but most of the older dudes been members for 20 years. Membership fees weren't insane like they are now. Who has 75k for initiation fee of a course no one heard of. 🤦🏾. Thanks for watching! 💚⛳✌🏾
