Free Golf!!!

I have been looking to join a Golf Club this Spring and was surprised to find a number of courses offering Free Trial Rounds. Half an hour's phoning round secured 6 free rounds (all fourballs, by the way...so your friends can benefit too!). So far we have played 3 different Private courses which would normally charge £25 - £45 per green fee per golfer.
You obviously need to give the impression that you and your friends are looking to join a new Club.....not just ask for a free round!
I suppose it is just like test driving a car.
As it happens, I shall be joining one of the 'Trial' courses because of their much reduced annual subs and no joining fee. So I have no guilt that I am abusing their generosity.
It seems that Golf Clubs are now struggling to attract new members and are having to use new marketing initiatives to increase membership. So get phoning around and benefit from 'Free Golf' this Summer.
