Interested to gauge comp fees at various courses.
Bonnie Doons just increased to 15 which seems rather steep.
What’s yours at your local?

Ours are $15 also. Has been for a while. What is the prize allocation %? Ours is 25%.
$15 weekends and $12 weekdays at Lynwood.
Looks to be around 35% prize pool.
You don't get me. I'm part of the Union.
Not sure what anything costs at RQ it just goes onto Underhill's account.
$15 seems overs for Bonnie Doon, are you being compensated with a lower annual subscription. If you play 2 or 3 times a week, your annual outlay makes for expensive golf.
We pay $10. Are you guys sure on the payout numbers, we are above 80% albeit you have to spend any winnings in the pro shop where the mark up is 50%
$6 for Thaxted Park for normal comp. Not sure on the split but Saturday comp pays $60, $40, $30 for A, B and C grade. Less for other days.

$18 at Dunheved, from memory $17 at Windsor.
Some committees assume fleecing the membership is the easiest way to raise revenue.
Are people willing to pay comp fees of $15 or more? I know I wouldn't.

Not everyone has the choices.
Depends on the model, I only played 20 times at my course last year, one guy played over 200 times.
To generate the same revenue base, I would certainly favour a user pays model with reduced annual subs. Golf clubs survive on members who don't play, most models are heavily in favour of people with unlimited time.
Comp fees seem lower in SA. $5 at North Adelaide (was $6, but apparently coins are dangerous covid carriers). Comp fees at a course I play in Qld (that is not as good as North Adelaide) are in the teens.
Gailes is at $18. I'll just use it as a practice course now, as it is stupid for me to pay that just so I can get my handicap updated.
It's definitely an eye opener being from SA. I had no idea clubs charged that sort of price for comps.

$13 helensvale
. Prize allocation dont know dont care.
$16 at Half Moon Bay.
Golf is, in part, a game; but only in part. It is also in part a religion, a fever, a vice, a mirage, a frenzy, a fear, an abscess, a joy, a thrill, a pest, a disease, an uplift, a brooding, a melancholy, a dream of yesterday and a hope for tomorrow. - New York Tribune, 1916.
Ours just went up from $12 to $15
