NYC Metro Money


Companies and charities buy hundreds of golf days a year in the metro, at prices from a muni shotgun to a famous club buyout. The difference between a good day and an expensive field trip is the venue math and the format.

**Our take:** A Monday at a Tier 2 or Tier 3 private club through an outing package is the sweet spot for most corporate days. Ferry Point and the premium daily fees are the no membership required alternative.

## The venue tiers for outings

Premium daily fee and resort style venues sell outing packages per player, commonly $250 to $450 a player with food at metro venues in recent seasons as estimates. Private club Monday outings, accessed through a member or the club's outing office, commonly run higher per player and include the pedigree. Famous name buyouts are a different budget entirely and are quoted case by case.

## The format rules

Scramble for mixed fields, best ball for golfers. Cap the field so the round stays under five hours, put the bar where the slow holes are, and spend on the two things guests remember: the course condition and the first drink being fast.

## What to negotiate

Rain dates in writing, the exact courses and times if the venue has two, caddie arrangements, and what happens to the deposit if the field shrinks. Charity buyers should also ask about Monday availability a full season out, since the best Mondays go first.

## The Downtown logistics

Charter buses from a Manhattan pickup point solve the car problem for 40 guests at once and cost less per head than the bar tab they replace. Build the pickup into the invitation, with the return times stated.
