Holey Terror: Hole No. 9 at The Links at Gettysburg

The Links at Gettysburg • Gettysburg, PA • thelinksatgettysburg.com • 717-359-8000

The hallowed grounds of Gettysburg, PA, are famously associated with the defining battle of the Civil War, with tales of lingering Confederate and Union spirits. Yet, 160-plus years later, a different kind of shot is being fired just a few miles away at The Links at Gettysburg.

This daily-fee course near the Mason-Dixon line offers a significant test of a golfer’s mettle. A round here is a march up and down the rolling central Pennsylvania countryside, characterized […]

Your Golf Bud

A Matter of Life or Death

By Bud Key, Mid-Atlantic Director – TeeTime Golf Pass

Ben Hogan, revered by many as the most technically perfect ball-striker in history, is famously attributed with the quote: “Golf is not a matter of life or death, it’s more important than that.” This sentiment perfectly captures the deep passion and significance the sport holds for so many of us.

In the fall of 2023, I struggled through a round of 18 holes at my favorite local course. For several months, I had been feeling truly […]

Muirfield Village Golf Club

I got a text from my buddy Rob last fall: “Heading to Scottsdale for some winter golf. Want in?” My immediate thought wasn’t “yes, that sounds amazing.” It was “how much?” Scottsdale means $150-300 per round. Phoenix resorts. Snowbird crowds. And here I was, living three hours from Muirfield Village Golf Club – one of the top courses in America – and paying attention to Arizona real estate advertisements.

That’s when it hit me: Ohio golf is genuinely incredible, and almost nobody talks about it.

Ohio has a remarkable concentration of high-quality golf, from Jack Nicklaus-designed […]

TeeTime Golf Pass vs. Greens’ Fee Passport – Both promise savings on green fees at Ontario golf courses. But they work differently, cover different courses, and offer different value. Here’s the honest comparison to help you pick the right one — or decide if you need both.

Quick Verdict: If you want a modern app experience, more deal types beyond 2-for-1, and access to courses across the US when you travel, TeeTime Golf Pass Ontario is the better all-around value. If you prefer a traditional coupon book with 800+ tear-out coupons at Ontario-only courses, the Greens’ Fee Passport has […]

Florida Golf Deals & Courses Guide: Play More, Pay Less in 2026

There’s a particular kind of torture that comes with wanting to golf in Florida. You show up in January with two weeks and your wallet, ready to knock off some bucket-list courses. Then you see the green fees. Resort courses charging $200-plus. Championship layouts that expect you to sacrifice your firstborn. The sunshine state’s golf is world-class – but the prices? Let’s just say they don’t come with that tropical breeze discount.

Here’s what I learned after exploring Florida’s best courses and deals: the real game isn’t […]

Golf is one of those sports that looks easy until you actually try it. You stand on the tee, look at the tiny hole way off in the distance, and think, “How hard could it be?”.  When I think of this, my mind immediately goes to the Robin Williams skit about how golf was invented (note: lots of swearing but hilarious!). Well, fast forward a few shots (or maybe a few dozen shots), and you realize there’s a whole world of technique, rules, and – let’s be honest – golf terms sound like they came from a secret language.  […]

 

My buddy Frank turned 55 last spring. The day after his birthday, he walked into our regular Thursday foursome, dropped his bag on the cart, and announced-with the gravity of a man who’d just discovered fire-that he was now officially a “senior golfer.”

“You know what that means?” he asked, eyes gleaming.

I figured he was about to complain about his knees or mention something about fiber. But no. Frank had done his homework.

“I played Stony Creek yesterday. Paid $23 with cart. Twenty-three dollars.” He paused for effect. “The kid behind the counter didn’t even card me.”

The rest of us-all firmly in […]

 

My buddy Rich has a spreadsheet for everything. Fantasy football projections. His kids’ college funds. The exact cost-per-mile of his Camry versus his wife’s SUV. Last summer he spent an entire round on the back nine of our local golf course calculating whether his golf pass was “worth it” instead of just enjoying the round.

“I think I’m up about $180,” he announced on the 16th tee, squinting at his phone. “Maybe $220 if you count that twilight round at Fowler’s Mill.”

I shanked my drive into the trees. Partly because of the wind. Mostly because I was laughing.

Here’s the thing-Rich […]
