Walked on without a tee time, and they set me up at temporary red tees with coffee-can-sized temp holes—a mix of regular and tricky placements. It was 10°C/50°F, but the ground felt warm (I swear it stores heat), with sunshine all day and no wind, so a sweater was plenty. Best part: they mulched all the leaves, so no searching for balls.
Had the course all to myself, played two balls, and scored only on the first one. And yes, you can definitely still 3-putt on temp greens, lol.

No, or Arizona. $$
Yeah but we can play TPC Scottsdale for $85 in July!
I played my local course on 4th of July. It was absolutely empty. Got there and the guy said, “don’t worry about paying, go play as many holes as you want. We only have a couple others booked for the whole day.”
Played 2 rounds for free that day and it was a great free 2 rounds. Holiday weekends are great in MI because the entire state goes up north lol.
