It really depends what someone wants in a golf club or country club.

If there goal is to save money on greens fees and practice fees, I always urge against it, because it may or may not work out.

But if there goal is to live a golf lifestyle and the other social activities that go along with joining a club, then I always say dive right in if you can afford it.

I agree and hope to join a club one for that reason. It's not really affordable right now with such a young child (his daycare is basically a house payment), but it will be in the next few years. The third option I listed is actually pretty affordable, but there are no real club ammenities. If I'm going to join, I want there to be benefits for my family. As far as season passes go, I only look at them as a value thing since they don't carry any perks aside from the greens fees being paid for in advance.
