Golf Travel
 
Has anyone heard of the Markers Club. They are apparently a high end golf destination club, but I am looking for anyone who might have experience with them before I think to seriously about dealing with them. They are a bit pricey but I figured this would be a good place to look for someone that might have dealt with them. Any info you might have on them would be great. Thanks

Uhhhhh..."High End"?? yup you hit the nail on the head....$150K just to join and $9.5K annual dues...Plus housing, plus plus plus...Just remember, when you drive a Rolls, you dont ask how much the oil change is.....I have found this a good site for golf info....www.sandtrap.com

Love to travel and golf round the world but $150k buy in when I can take that money and rent a villa and play golf where and whenever I want for a lot less..
I like the concept but for me, I am not in that world..wish I was!

I know it is expensive but I believe that you get the intitial membership fee back when you stop your membership (with a bit of fine print there I am sure).

I did find some reviews on another site in case anyone cares(sorry was a bit excited when I found this so I just wanted to share). The link is below if you care enough to check it out.

You asked this back in July and got a fair bit of response.

Or you could probably pay someone to do it for you ;)
