We played at a relatively "posh" course on our last trip, and including green fees, clubs, a buggy and all the bits and bobs it was around $150 in total I think. Dad paid as it was my birthday :p:

If you pick up leaflets in hotels etc or on local maps, many coupons are offered with discounts on many courses.

We had a great day - more details in the trip report from Aug 04 below (31st August is the day you need)

Cheers

I played at Falcons Fire in Sept .It is opposite Old Town in Kissimmee. The course woz out of this world. i paid 45 dollars for Taylor Made clubs same as Ernie Els uses. The green fees were around 90 dollars for a morning round but only 45 after 2 pm. Seriously if you want to play a a Championship golf club play here!! www.falconsfire.com

It is Superb. I had buggy clubs shoes balls tees at at a world class golf club for £100 . Well worth every penny

I'm so desperate to have a round or 2 over there,but in previous trips with friends my mate just wasn't interested and I don't think her in doors will be too chuffed if I go off on my own this trip for a game so it looks like I'll have to wait another year or so.

Sorry just thought of a question, do you need to show a handicap certificate before they allow you to play?

Hi,
We got back sunday - had a great time time
Managed to get 3 rounds of golf in as well......
we played at Kissemmee golf club which is right by Kissemmee airport (down the 192 and turn right at Hoglands and travel a couple of miles)
We used vouchers in most of the free hand outs and the price was $52 each - 18 holes, cart and hire of clubs and a free sleeve of balls).
Was god value and we spoke with others that played the course and they sais it was one of the best values for money.
A nice course

Played celebration golf course last year which was tremendous. Took no equipment at all so hired clubs, shoes (could probablt have bought cheaper at Belz or somewhere) and even had to buy a glove and balls - that plus green fees and buggy hire (between 2) came to around £100 each.
Thoroughly recommend the course and there was no mention of handicap certificates.

We're looking to go for 4 rounds. Highlands Reserve, Champions Gate, Orange County National & A.N Other. Happy for any suggestions. Was going to take my shoes with me, but if i can get a fairly good price on new ones I might just treat myself. any tips on where I can get them?
