Golf is a great pastime of millions of people worldwide. Many people find a day on the course greens, playing a game of 18 holes, very relaxing. However, for those on a budget, golf can be a very expensive sport with course and lodging fees as well as the cost of supplies such as clubs and balls. If you are on a budget, but still want to golf often, there are many things that you can do to golf on a budget. The most expensive parts of golfing can often be airfare if you decide to travel to resorts across the globe, as well as lodging fees that are associated with overnight or multiple day golf trips, as well as the price of a caddie at some resorts.

To solve these three problems there are a couple things you can do. First, golf closer to home. If you want to golf at more exquisite resorts limit the number of times you golf at these locations and try to stick to more local courses as this not only cuts travel costs, but also cuts lodging costs as many of these trips can be made day trips. Finally, do not hire a caddie at places that cost a lot. You can select your own clubs and drive the cart yourself. The cost of a caddie can get awfully expensive so making just a few adjustments on the course can help you save some money.

There are ways to golf on a budget and these three tips are very helpful in cutting down golf costs.
