As a golf "attempter" I wonder whether golf clubs and accessories are cheaper in the UK or in OZ.
Same for green fees...

Many thanks in advance

Not sure about golf clubs etc, but when we was out there 3 years ago i was playing at my Uncles private club,then it cost him about £400 a year,it was quite posh, 2 restaraunts,small casino,etc, and alovely 18 hole course.I thought £400 was very reasonable compared to England.I also played a lot of public courses,cost about £4.00 a round,one of them they also gave you 3 free golf balls for that.

My impression is that club membership at a good club is not too different from the UK, possibly a bit cheaper.

Green fees generally are much lower.

Let me know if you find a website which allows you to find clubs in an area!

As regards the price of clubs; if you find one which guarantees a 250yd (225m) drive, straight, who cares HOW much it costs! <g>

I drove past a local golf club recently, and noticed it charged $15 per round of golf.

thanks fr all replies.
sounds as if green fees are lower in OZ.

How about equipment (clubs, bags....etc.)?
