We all know the rise of golf popularity due to covid. Now with inflation the greens fees haven’t come down at all.


More people are playing golf. Supply and Demand. When people quit buying the tee times the price will come back down. Golf courses are businesses.

You would think that would be the case, but not always.

Meadowbrook Farms here in Houston area during the week would rather have 10 cars in the parking lot at a 70.00 green fee than lowering the price to 50 bucks and filling up the course.

And since covid, a lot of courses have forgotten how much food and beverages profits add to the bottom line.

This is so weird to me because not even 7-10 years ago courses across the country were in bad financial shape and closing.

Now all of the sudden there’s a huge uptick and it’s more expensive than ever?

Not to mention, all of the TopGolf locations. Are they doing as well as they were a few years ago?
