Billy-Bo-Jim-Bob Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Attended last years PGA at Bethpage for $100/ticket for a grounds pass. This year I laid down $150 for the US Open at Winged Foot. Shouldn't there be a ticket type that's more family friendly? How does the average Joe bring his family of 4 for a walk in the park?

GolfSpy MPR Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 Defending high ticket prices isn't really my idea of a good time, but it's important to add: every time I've bought tickets for any PGA Tour event, one adult ticket also admits (at least) two kids free.

The PGA Championship lets juniors (17 and under) in for free with a paying adult. I brought my kids to the 2017 PGA Championship at Quail Hollow. Actually not a bad deal for the three of us. 2 hours ago, tony@CIC said: Another reason why I like going to LPGA events.

And if you have a local LPGA tournament and a daughter that's into golf, get her signed up for LPGA/USGA Girls Golf, and she'll most likely get to go for free. https://www.girlsgolf.org/ tony@CIC 1 Quote What's in the bag: Driver - F8 - Aldila NV Blue 60 ( S ) 3 Wood (13.5*) - 980F 4 Wood (18*) - F8 - Aldila NV Blue 60 ( S ) 3 Hybrid (19*) - RBZ 4i - PW - D7 Forged - Recoil 760 ( S ) 52* - CBX 58* - CBX Full Face 2 Putter - Craz-e Bag - 2.5 (Blue) Ball - AVX Instagram - @hardcorelooper Twitter - @meovino Facebook - mike.eovino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outlier Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Also, why does everything need to cater to the Avg. Joe? Why has America somehow assigned some level of "valor" to Average Joe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chadwzimm Posted May 17, 2020 Share Posted May 17, 2020 That's an incredible policy to be able to bring kids for free basically! Wish more sports were like that. I can't wait to bring my 2 year old when she's older and I have a little more control over her need to constantly be talking! Maybe we'll start with a practice round...
