Hi,.

Just wonder how Farangs do book their golfing?

I understand that if you have a membership, you just call the golf club for booking.

But without any membership, what would be the most common way to book?

Contacting booking agencies (via Web or Phone) or directly golf clubs or what?

How do you do it?

thanks for your advice!

I look for deals like sports days and call clubs directly. On weekdays, I often just turn up at the club if I'm alone and it's not likely to be busy. Never been turned away...

Looked through PSC and IPGC but fees are not very special...hm....

The difference is less then it used to be but it depends if you are looking at specific courses as otherwise -

Crystal Bay normal weekday 2000, PSC price 750

Eastern Star - weekday 1500, PSC 800

Mountain Shadow weekday 2000, PSC 750

AS GBHK said check the PSC list for sports days etc and there are some better reductions - http://www.pattayasports.org/golf-rates/

As scubascuba says you are not going to find much better. Some of the societies used to get a slightly better rate on some courses due to the numbers they took but I think that this no longer the norm these days.

If you want to keep costs down and do not have your own transport going with a "group" will save you a lot on taxis.

Just call and if you have a Thai license etc ask for local resident prices.

Have you got any examples of those prices?

Are they better than PSC/IPGC?

Crystal Bay last week, 1000 am tee time, walked in no PSC card, paid 750 baht green fee.

Eastern Star last week 500 baht green fee. This week 700 baht. 900 baht normal walk in price. Just ask.

Emerald 750 baht green fee. I just asked for discount.

Nowhere did I show or was asked for any Thai related docs

Its the low season

maybe its a low season thing, sounds good though. Its a pity caddy fees don't drop as well, they'd stay as 600 baht, almost as much as the green fees Edited by scubascuba3
