It shows all the golf courses - select the one you are interested in and then there is a link to the website that shows the course info including fees. There are quite a few give or take $50
May be a long way around it but I have trouble remembering all the courses names...so this helps me. Just an idea.....

I'm gonna be selling a Taylormade R7 driver soon here. Stiff shaft 10.5 degree loft. As well as a Callaway X 3-wood, also with a stiffy.
My reason for selling the driver is because of the loft. Where I play it gets windy, so I'm buying an 8.5 with a different type of stiff shaft.
I've already played around 10 rounds this year  I love it.

I'm going to play the executive course there today. Quick and cheap, 11 holes for $15 wkdy / $20 wknd also with a cart. Perfect for beginners and you can pull out the driver on a couple holes if you are one. If it's dead and you're sneaky you can go from the 10th back to the 2nd and play 20  Not that I would ever do that 
Edit: Executive greens are in rough shape so far.
Played 20 holes, shot 17 over. 0 birdies

Played Canal. 45 front, 50 back due to excessive beer drinking.
Windy as hell too, but I love that course.

Anybody know where I can buy a lightweight or small carry bag with stand or sunday golf bag under $100? Don't need to carry all my irons.
Also, where do I buy a rain cover for golf bags?

^ Usually the bag comes with the cover... I'd check Golftown if you haven't already.

Golftown has a decent PING sunday carry bag for $38.88. I've seen some Winners locations in the past sell Titleist sunday bags for $40 as well but have not seen any lately.

So I won a round for 2 at the Okanagan Golf Club (The Bear or The Quail course - $115/person). I have no means of getting up there. Does anyone wanna trade with other golf gift certs for Westwood, other local courses or maybe even a driver? PM me.
