layers club programs are a big deal at many
golf courses across America, with golfers re-
ceiving discounted green fees and other
perks as part of the membership.
But no program is focused more directly on actu-
ally improving your game than The Players Club,
which is now being offered at nearly a dozen
American Golf courses in Southern California.
While the monthly fee, which is $29.99 or $39.99
depending on the course, gives range credit and
free green fees one hour prior to super twilight at
most courses, it also includes free professional in-
struction via two one-hour clinics each week.
"It's a great value and a great way to improve
your game," said Tate Stull, General Manager of
Knollwood Country Club in Granada Hills. "It's a
player development and improvement program
that allows golfers of any level to work on their
game with complimentary practice balls, golf clin-
ics every week, discounted golf gear and free cart
fees after 12 p.m. And, members enjoy a free drink
each time they play golf."
The program has been such a success that Amer-
ican Golf is now offering it at 21 of its clubs across
the country, including 10 in Southern California.
"To me, it is absolutely the best program avail-
able in the golf industry today," said Jeff Perry, a
Regional Vice President at American Golf Corpora-
tion. "What I enjoy the most about it is hearing our
guests' initial reactions … Typically, it's either 'no
way' or 'this is too good to be true.'"
Details of the American Golf Players Club do
vary at each participating course. For instance,
while range balls and instruction are offered at
each course, some courses do not offer complimen-
tary green fees but do offer free golf carts for mem-
bers. Other courses offer discounted green frees,
but not complimentary golf carts.
"It's a great offer that is designed to improve
your skills," said Tim Hayward, General Manager
at Tecolote Canyon Golf Course in San Diego, "and
help you enjoy the game of golf."
