Today, people still seem to have great misunderstandings about golf. When it comes to golf, most people’s first impression is: expensive. Expensive has two explanations, one is aristocratic movement, and the other is expensive. As everyone knows, golf has gradually become a popular sport, because its cost is really not as expensive as people think.
In fact, in recent years, the cost of playing an 18-hole golf in first-tier cities in China is 1,800 yuan, the cheapest is 470 yuan, and the public price is 8,900 yuan. An 18-hole golf course takes almost four and a half hours, and the average hourly consumption is about 200 yuan. Playing tennis, badminton, even basketball and football is almost the same consumption level. In this way, do you still think playing golf is expensive? And this is the consumption level of first-tier cities. If you know the prices in other cities, I’m afraid you will shout "cheap".
Therefore, golf has become a popular sport, which is really not just an expression. In recent years, more and more people play golf, and the price factor is only one aspect. More importantly, golf is the best exercise to keep healthy. The following will popularize the coup that can save money to play ball from many aspects.
A coup to crack the high threshold of equipment
In the United States, where golf is prevalent, it is often seen that children under the age of 10 play 18 holes with their bags on their backs. In the eyes of those children and parents, golf is an ordinary sport, and most people can participate in it. A game costs only 20-30 US dollars (about 135-200 yuan RMB).
Back in China, it is a world of ice and fire, and golf has been labeled as an "aristocratic sport". Is the price of playing golf not close to the people, or are people misreading the sport?
Comparing golf with other sports-tennis, badminton, swimming, skiing and equestrian, you will find that the cost of golf clubs and balls is indeed higher than other sports. Tennis, badminton and swimming equipment have the lowest price, which can be done within 200 yuan; If only helmets and gloves (excluding horses themselves) are counted in equestrian, the price is around 300 yuan; Although the price of skiing equipment is higher than that of golf equipment, most ski resorts provide free rental services for skis and ski suits. Therefore, the equipment threshold for playing golf is indeed higher than that for general sports.
But in the face of the high threshold of equipment, can we only flinch? The answer is not like this!
With the improvement of their own skills, many golfers will change their clubs regularly, so how to deal with the old ones? If you don’t have friends to send, it will take up space at home, and it will be a pity to throw it away. In fact, there is also a big market for second-hand clubs. You can try to sell them on some second-hand resale platforms or special club second-hand websites. Of course, golfers in the beginner stage can also choose to buy second-hand clubs.
The price of golf course is not completely high and cold.
If the equipment "sets" the threshold for golf, is its venue price higher than other sports?
Most standard golf courses are membership courses, and members need to pay expensive membership fees to play, but these courses also accept individual bookings. Due to the different prices of high-end and low-end courses, the price of playing golf in the courses that receive individual guests ranges from 310 yuan to 1920 yuan, and the price per person per hour ranges from 77.5 yuan to 480 yuan (calculated according to four hours per game).
The prices of indoor and outdoor venues are quite different, and the prices of indoor venues are also very different due to different conditions. The hourly price of tennis venues ranges from 50 to 580 yuan, and the consumption price per person per hour ranges from 25 to 290 yuan (calculated by two-person AA system). The public has misunderstood golf courses. Many golf courses are not "high and cold" as everyone thinks, and their prices are close to the people, while the fees of other sports venues are not low. Some participants in tennis and equestrian have the financial strength to join golf.
There are some tips in this respect. When you want to play on a golf course, you may wish to ask your golfers if they have an anonymous membership card, or you can ask members to help you book a court and use the guest price. In addition, there are a lot of booking software and playing packages on the Internet now, so pay more attention to playing more games with the same money.
Tee time on weekdays and mornings is low in many courses, so you may wish to choose this time if it is convenient. Not only is the state of the stadium better, but you can bid farewell to the "traffic jam" and you will have a sense of carefree monopolizing the stadium. Now there is a 9-hole mini golf course that is becoming more and more popular, mainly because of its reasonable price and short time consumption. Many times you don’t have four hours, but two hours sounds much easier.
A year’s fee is less than one night’s nightclub consumption?
At one time, it was roughly calculated that the cost of playing golf a year could not even cover the consumption of a nightclub for one night. How much does it cost to play golf for a year? I believe everyone gives different answers. Let’s figure out how much money to spend at least a year from the most economical aspect …
Suppose a person: he plays 30 games a year, buys clothes but doesn’t change his pole, and drives himself every time. How much does he need to spend a year?
Equipment cost (10000)= clothing (5000)+ ball (1000)+ driving range (4000)
Playing fee (19500)= travelling fee (150)+ green fee (500)× number of games (30 games)
Total cost (29500)= equipment cost (10000)+ playing fee (19500)
The above total cost is a span of one year, and in nightclubs in first-tier cities in China, the consumption for one night is sometimes this figure. And the two forms of entertainment are not at the same level for people’s physical and mental health. Can you still say that it is really expensive?
The above expenses are a general situation, and this article also has some tips to save money. For example, bring your own drinks and snacks. Many golfers love to drink a sports drink and eat some energy bars and chocolates at the end of the game. However, these things are often sold very expensive in the stadium. You may think that it is nothing to listen to a coke for 25 yuan, but it is also a big expense after a long time. After all, the supermarket only sells 3 yuan.
Straight flush, buy a ball catcher. As the "king of a bag of balls", there are always a few balls left in the water obstacle area every game. Next time you spend 50 yuan on a ball catcher, you can earn back the cost by picking up two balls. Besides, catching the ball is very fulfilling.
You can also use second-hand balls at ordinary times. A brand-new box of good balls will certainly improve the playing experience, but if you are still a "tricycle", it will be a bit wasteful to throw a box of balls down the 18th hole. There are a large number of second-hand balls sold in the network and shops, which vary according to the color and brand. You can consider buying some, so it won’t be too painful.
Secondly, walk instead of cart. There are also many stadiums in China that can choose not to use carts. It is also a very good choice to walk and chat with friends while enjoying the scenery of the stadium. This can not only save a sum of money, but also get close to nature, breathe fresh air and exercise. Isn’t that the charm of golf?
Golf, expensive or not, is more of a psychological "expensive" for Chinese people. If you convert the physical and mental health brought by this sport into value, you will find that such "expensive" is really cheap.

There are three kinds of strange images of China’s three big balls. The first strange image is the volleyball team. Why do everyone pay great attention to the China women’s volleyball team, but few people care about the China men’s volleyball team? The winning or losing of the women’s volleyball team affects people’s hearts, and the men’s team is not enthusiastic about winning or losing, and many people are scolded.
The second oddball is the football team. Countries all over the world generally like men’s football better than women’s football, but China regards China women’s football more important than China men’s football. The third oddball is the basketball team. Why do fans prefer the China women’s basketball team? There are definitely not as many fans who like the China men’s basketball team as those who like the China women’s basketball team. Of course, the praise for the women’s basketball team makes the men’s basketball team envy.
China men’s soccer team can be compared with China men’s volleyball team, but the men’s volleyball team is not as hot as the men’s soccer team, but it is not inferior to China men’s soccer team in terms of repeated poor performance and no fighting spirit. Among the three big balls, the men’s volleyball team, like the men’s football team, only brings pain to the Chinese people. Men’s football players can sometimes see a little fighting spirit on the court, while men’s volleyball players are not as good as people. For so many years, he has no fighting spirit and no desire to win. The China Men’s Volleyball Team with a neat lineup was beaten by the Japanese Men’s Volleyball Team. I believe that not many people care about this result except volleyball fans.
Although you can’t deny everyone with one game, it’s really ugly to play. Zhang Jingyin’s serve is obviously not as good as that in Gdansk. He dare not relax himself with the example of his teammates outside, and he will regress when he comes back. All the problems are still old, the first pass is not good, the second pass is slow and unstable, the mentality is not good, and so on. I hope that the next game can be adjusted quickly.
Men’s volleyball team should invite foreign teachers. Domestic leagues are all low-level competitions, which can’t improve the value of exercise. At present, the most important thing in China is that the basic skills of receiving and dispatching are too poor, and the coaches don’t pay enough attention to it. The volleyball center should introduce rules. It is mandatory that no less than three players on each team in the league must use strong jumping service. Natural players will practice strong jumping service, and the corresponding jumping service will also have the opportunity to adapt. Although the Japanese team is short and short in stature, its basic skills are solid, especially the skills of the next three courses are superior. After it is not deducted, it will score a counterattack, and its online strength is also outstanding and its tactics are changeable, which has taught the China team a lesson.
Is it true that "birds fly away with husband and wife, and people are virtuous and have high character"? People will have different moods in different environments, do different things, and their thoughts will change. It is said that many astronauts, and foreign astronauts, look back in space and see that the earth is so small. In an instant, I also feel that human beings are small, even forgetting the nationality, and I hope that the "global village" will unite. Challenging the mysterious space together, although few astronauts talked about it, according to the network, most astronauts and foreign astronauts should have the same mood at that time.
Many people say that looking at the earth from space is a word "beauty". In fact, I think it should be more thorough. Some people think that if leaders of various countries go to space to see the earth, there may not be so many disputes. The idealist’s idea is really beautiful. "A leopard cannot change his spots." It’s not who is slipped into space that can change the world pattern. The greed, desire and the law of the jungle of human nature can only become more and more obvious. How can it become more and more noble? People are not gods. If human beings could have a bigger pattern, the world would have been in harmony. Maybe all mankind will be promoted to the first level of civilization through cutting-edge technology.
The greedy desire that human beings can’t change is just like dogs can’t change eating shit and cats love eating fish. It’s hard to hear, but it’s true. Humans always think that the world belongs to me, and they are always willing to position themselves as masters and creators, so their possessiveness is very strong. As long as they rule a country or rule the earth, everything on the earth is not ours. Perhaps all this is not human’s original intention. Humans can only control their own behaviors and desires, but can’t decide higher-level things at all. In fact, it is God’s will that created human beings and human nature, which cannot be easily changed by human beings. In fact, we are more like the "turkey" in the TV series "Three-body".
Maybe you think I’m talking nonsense, but isn’t Einstein talking nonsense? Does Yang Zhenning, a Chinese scientist, also talk nonsense? They all tend to be God-like creators, so I said that there is no problem with the existence of God. When I say providence, I mean God! Although Einstein and China’s Yang Zhenning are both great scientists and physicists. Celebrities, maybe they are just idols of human beings, with a little more ideas. As carbon-based human beings, we have not yet broken through the first-class civilization of the universe. How can you see through so many things? Perhaps, as I said before, this phenomenon is called a myth before the problems that human beings can’t solve.
We pay attention to science in everything, but how did Einstein and Yang Zhenning get the first driving force before the Big Bang in the universe? That’s why everyone is more inclined to have a creator. Maybe the first driving force of the universe is naturally formed, and what about the driving force of natural release? Personally, I think that life on our earth basically belongs to carbon-based life. The study of all the stars and various phenomena in space is only in one point to observe the whole universe. If we humans move towards the first level civilization, we may know more mysteries in the universe and space.
For the vast mysteries of the universe, human beings are nothing more than children picking up shells at the seaside. It may be a joke to look back at human science when we enter the next level of civilization, because all phenomena of celestial bodies are just guesses, so we can only rely on guesses. If a policeman solves a case by guessing, then we all know that this is nonsense. Isn’t it nonsense for a scientist to guess? Therefore, I think that after the arrival of silicon-based life, the theories of these scientists are all fart or even worthless. At least silicon-based life can go to danger in person and engage in scientific research in space.
Silicon-based life is more suitable for all kinds of harsh environments, and perhaps no oxygen mask is needed at all. I think these great scientists live by guessing there, so it is better to study life and make human life stronger and wiser. Only we are strong. We can conquer a more powerful universe. Humans may not understand it, but human wisdom has developed artificial intelligence robots, which will not be tired or sleepy. Maybe artificial intelligence will tell us in the future.
