The economy isn't the only thing hurting the game of golf. There are a lot of things that are wrong with it.

Also, not every new course needs to be a 5 star and $75 for 18. One of the most enjoyable rounds I had all summer was at a course that was $45 for 18 and a cart.

I disagree that the economy isn't the biggest culprit. When disposable income become more valuable and the cost of golf can be quite prohibitive for beginners to start and add expensive green fees and golf becomes a luxury.

I completely agree with you on the pricing of green fees though, it gets pretty crazy.
