How to Choose the Right GolfPass Membership Plan

GolfPass is a golf membership that bundles instruction, travel and entertainment content with savings on tee times. To choose a plan, start from what you'll actually use: if you mainly want the video library, a content-focused tier is enough; if you book rounds regularly, weigh the tee-time discount against the cost of the tier that includes it. The site provides a "Compare plans" view and mentions a free trial, so you can test the content before committing.

What GolfPass includes

Based on the site's own description, a GolfPass membership covers:

• Exclusive golf content — instruction series, travel features and video
• Golf instruction — including the School of Golf series with Eric Cogorno and Blair O'Neal, plus drills and series such as Breaking 80 and short-game and putting lessons
• Golf travel — destination and course coverage, such as the Medinah Country Club No. 3 course preview and a Wild Spring Dunes course review
• Savings on tee times — the page highlights "Get $40 off tee times"
• Video — the broader video library tied to the membership

The page also surfaces tournament-related content, such as how to watch the Presidents Cup and Presidents Cup betting coverage. If you only care about watching and learning, that content alone may justify a tier. If you care about paying less when you play, the tee-time benefit is the deciding factor.

The three things that should drive your choice

1. Content vs. savings

Ask which side of the membership you'll use more:

The site frames the decision as "Choose the right plan for your game," which points to the same split: your game and your booking habits, not the biggest plan by default.

2. How often you play

The "$40 off tee times" figure is only meaningful relative to how many rounds you book. A golfer who plays weekly will recover a higher-tier cost faster than someone who plays a few times a season. If your booking volume is low, paying extra for savings you won't use is the wrong trade.

3. Whether you want instruction depth

The instruction library is organized into series and drills rather than one-off clips — for example, the Chip vs. Pitch Drill, the Chipping Landing Spot Drill, Steady Knees, Better Short Putts, and the Mobility – Day 1 session. If structured, progressive instruction is what you're after, confirm that your chosen tier includes the full video library rather than a subset.

How to compare and decide

1. Open the Compare plans section on the site and line up the tiers side by side.
2. Note which tiers include tee-time savings and which are content-only.
3. Estimate your rounds per year and compare that against the discount.
4. Check whether a free trial is available and use it to sample the instruction and travel content.
5. Pick the lowest tier that covers your main use; upgrade later if you start booking more.

Common sticking points

• Assuming every tier includes tee-time savings. The page separates content from savings, so verify before buying.
• Choosing by price alone. The cheapest tier is only the right one if it covers what you'll use.
• Skipping the trial. If a free trial is offered, it's the cheapest way to test whether the instruction style and content volume fit you.
• Ignoring how the discount applies. The "$40 off tee times" headline is a savings claim; check the terms that apply to your bookings before treating it as guaranteed value.

Bottom line

Match the plan to your behavior: content-first golfers should pick on library access, frequent players should pick on tee-time savings, and anyone unsure should start with the free trial and the Compare plans view before paying.
