frenzal rhomb Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 Went to a local course yesterday with a friend. Because we were a twosome they charged us an additional five bucks each to play - then they paired us up with another twosome thus creating a foursome. IS this the norm??? I know I wont be playing there again. They charged the other twosome the extra five as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put 'em through the ringer on social media. I bet that policy changes real quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. If they paired you up, they should have at LEAST refunded the $5 or given you 19th hole credit, a bucket of range balls or a sleeve. The fact they charged you in the first place is shady at best. Is this policy in writing or is the pro shop dude making some cash on the side. I agree, go social media on there ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, go social media on there ass. its on the board posted - but if youre gonna charge me a premium to play as a twosome, then I should play as a twosome - Don't worry, they already got a nasty email and I will be spreading the word. Hopefully the 20 extra bucks was worth the loss of business Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chester Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 If the girls were hot enough, I'd definitely pay extra for a foursome. What's this golf that you are talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delicious_bass Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I have definitely seen courses pair up twosomes before but never heard of an extra charge. That's fairly irritating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frenzal rhomb Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 I have definitely seen courses pair up twosomes before but never heard of an extra charge. That's fairly irritating. yeah - I don't mind getting paired up. It actually makes sense - but again, don't charge me extra and then pair me up.

Cyclones Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Some courses around here offer a "special" or lower price if you book as a foursome, but I have never heard of them charging extra at the course for booking as a twosome. And, it is complete BS that they paired you up after charging you the $5 extra. I would have told the starter to either go get the $10 back or refused to play as four.
