The Guides
The definitive resource for planning a group golf trip in America — destinations, costs, logistics, and the playbooks the professionals use.
Group golf trips are one of life's great traditions. Planning them is one of the most thankless jobs imaginable. These guides exist because we believe nobody should have to volunteer as the trip organizer. Use them, share them, and reference them as you plan. When you're ready to hand it all off — that's where we come in.
