I purchased a Savemore HV (Hudson Valley, NY) golf card this year. I've purchased them in years past too; however, this year there were some surprises (not in a good way) Personally, I like the idea of experiencing playing courses that I wouldn't normally get the opportunity to play on. This year they added 2 extra courses but three of them were clearly substandard. Tennanah Lake Golf and Tennis Club, Beekman, and the Lynx at River Bend Golf Club. The Lynx was an awful experience, the greens were terrible and they didn't even have a driving range onsite. Tennanah Lake was 1-1/2 hours away and isn't even in the Hudson Valley region. The greens at Beekman are being areaded (which is understandable) but 11 of the 18 greens were covered with sand and you couldn't even putt on them. But the biggest surprise of all was that this year you have to pay for the golf cart which added between $18-20 (plus up to $10 if you wanted range balls) to the cost of each round. The cart purchase was tucked in the fine print which I didn't see and didn't realize until I presented my card a the pro shop.

Unless there are some drastic changes I don't think I'll be purchasing the golf card next season (2020).
