Data notes & caveats
- Break-even is in rounds per month because the pass bills monthly with a four-month minimum ($120).
- Fore Pass mid-day rates ($25.00 at 18-hole courses) are higher than the resident regular rate on the rates page ($23.50 Mon-Thu), so the pass only helps early, late and at Tup Holmes.
