    350 - 9 hole course.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 592 ✭✭✭rickis tache


    500 plus 50 in admin fees. Half the price of fees I used to pay in my old club but half the course to be fair.

    Maybe I'm reading it wrong but that sounds ridiculous. So if you are under 40, you can't enter Sunday competitions??

    So only over 40 year olds can play on Sunday?

    You can if you are a full member I assume. I think the *40 means that membership option is only for under 40s


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 542 ✭✭✭Bill Ponderosa


    1150 all in. Big enough money for a course that's just about OK.

    Serious money for golf.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,460 ✭✭✭Ivefoundgod


    €718 for under 35 membership, additional €100 as part of a €1k joining fee paid over 10 years. Could have joined Mount Wolseley for less but Carlow is literally 2 minutes out the road for me so made sense in the long run.

    Steep alright. I hope your course is very high up the recently published rankings of Ireland’s top 100 courses. My club is listed just outside the top 30 and we pay €950 which is steep enough considering course will have been closed for nearly half of the last year. Hopefully open soon and we all get plenty of summer golfing.

    It is in top 30 and top 3 or 4 parkland and without naming it will host Irish Open in July

    That's a cool idea, being able to pay in bulk for the weekly comps


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭bailey99


    What not name the club? The only issue is if you quote the wrong sub.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,835 ✭✭✭Golfgraffix

    Localish to me so, thought i saw them offering cheaper memberships lately? Around €1800ish or was that a reduced membership sort of thing?

    EDIT: checked it out, i was looking at under 35 membership. Ignore me :o

    Wow that’s some money. I’m curious to know club but if you don’t want to say that’s ok


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,197 ✭✭✭bailey99


    A bit pointless detailing the subscription without also naming the club. What's expensive in monetary terms is relative to the course I would think. 1500 is dear but is 1500 dear if its royal county down or the old head to be a member of?!!!!

    I don't see why you don't post what club the membership price is also. It's not like this is confidential information or anything. Once the information is accurate and not false, there's no issue.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 7,268 Mod ✭✭✭✭charlieIRL


    I've no problem with the clubs being named - only if their prices are available on their respective websites / social media outlets. A lot of clubs you have to contact them for membership rates so maybe they don't want them published.

    That is Dun Laoghaire and details are available on their website.
    I was a Junior member there moved abroad for 5 years so they wouldn't let me have Intermediate membership on return which is significantly cheaper.

    It is a great course, albeit it with some fundamental flaws but I loved being a member there as had developed good friendships with a lot of members built over the years.

    €1100 maybe a bit more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,006 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    Full Membership €650

    Distant Membership has gone up though from €200 to €300 to get the same terms it was last year. They've split it into 5 and 7 day distant membership. The 5 day one is the same price as the proper distant membership used to be.

    How much is the discount? If I lived beside or near that club I’d bite your arm off to join, what a course!

    Edit - didn’t want to mention the exact club.

    45 holes! wow, didn't know anywhere in Irl that has that many.

    I went to Bethpage for a look one year. 5 x 18 hole courses on the one grounds. Nuts.

    What do you get for your annual sub usually?

    Is it just the cost of maintaining the course?

    Corrstown and Forest Little had playing rights in each other’s course, hence you had access to 45 holes but it ended last year.

    If clubs don't want to publish their prices that's fair enough, but if someone wants to share how much they paid that's fair enough too. It's not up to us to keep their fees a secret.
