I'm checkin' out sommma the golf courses in my area and I have found four different types.
Non-equity, equity, municipal and public. Whats that mean?

All offer pretty much the same thing. 9-18 holes, driving range, a clubhouse/players club, and cart rental.

The green fees differ amongst courses. And they vary with the size/location of the course.

i always go to the ones that exclude blacks

er.... aside from vinyls helpful input.

I'm sure some of them are exclusive to club members or pro golfers.

sounds liek the equity and non-equity are two types of private courses. municipal is a course run by the city and a public course is a privately owned course that is open to the public.

Thats kinda what I was thinkin' but they all offered play to the public. For a price...

For those looking to make a smaller investment for membership or those that aren’t able to make a long-term commitment to the Club, Non-Equity Golf Membership offers the same golf privileges and use of the Club as a Regular Equity Golf Member, but the Non-Equity Member does not hold ownership of the Club and is not eligible to hold office, vote on Club matters, acquire a Junior Membership for their family or achieve Veteran Status.

Thank you.
I was thinkin' something along those lines, but wasn't sure. I used golflinks.com for the info and it was pretty sparse on what those terms meant
