I ONLY bring my own beer to the course... not because it is snobbish (Ultra, when I'm playing)...but because after dropping $60+ on a round and another $5-$10 on a bucket.. I'm not trying to spend $4 per beer when I can buy them at the store for $1 each and save another $30 or so.

I can assure you from years working in a Pro Shop in high school and college... these places aren't paying the bills with beer sales so I don't feel guilty one bit.

So if a friend invites you to his club (BRCC, CCL, Oakbourne, NOCC or LCCC) and you pay the $100+ green fee. You sneaking beer on the course?

Or just enjoy one of those fine courses and drink one beer max. I'm not against drinking during a round but sneaking your own beer in is trash as frick.

I typically try to buy a few beers (if they have a decent selection) or maybe a Blood Mary. I just can’t stand light beer. If all you have are 4$ Ultras, Bud and Miller, I’m bringing my own beer.

This is where I'm at.

I get the sneaking it on to public and semi private courses, it's still trashy but I get it.

Sneaking it on to a private course when invited by a member is about as bad as it gets IMO. If you're too cheap to pay for a couple $4 Bud lights then just stay at your local shitty muni
