Hole 12

We have not increased our membership fees for 2010 so full membership at Puttenham still works out at a little over £21 per week with 5-day membership costing just over £17 per week.

During August and September, we are offering a 30% discount on subscriptions for the remainder of 2010 to anyone applying for full or 5-day membership.

As a full or 5-day member, you can introduce guests at special rates, hold a CONGU recognised handicap, enter competitions, receive regular newsletters, represent the Club in matches, get free weekday access to a number of other courses within an hour’s drive of Puttenham, attend the popular social events held throughout the year (friends and family are also welcome), receive a member’s discount on food and drink, have full access to the course, practice and club house facilities and, of course, meet many like-minded people in an informal and sociable atmosphere.

Much of the play at Puttenham is arranged through a network of roll up systems, which makes fixing a game very easy and is a great way for new members to become integrated into the Club very quickly. With only 550 playing members, the course is not over-used and is rarely unduly busy, particularly during the week.

If you don't feel you can justify the time or cost of full golf club membership but would still like to enjoy the benefits of being a club member, Puttenham Golf Club’s LPR membership may be the answer for you. Starting at only £250 for a year's subscription, you then pay a member’s guest green fee each time you play and can introduce guests at the same, low rate. All of Puttenham’s membership categories are good value for money with special prices for juniors and reduced fees for those up to the age of 29. Under 16's can also join Puttenham's Academy Membership which offers unlimited access to our 3-Hole Academy Course and practice facilities together with free ball tokens and access to the Club's PGA Professionals. A great way for youngsters to learn the game of golf.

"I enjoyed a fantastic game of golf on a beautiful course with good people and good banter resulting in a very enjoyable, good humoured four hours"

"In my search for a local club to join I had not found a course that I would like to play over and over again until yesterday. Every hole had a particular character of its own and was a joy to play. This combined with an obvious good natured and welcoming membership is a rare combination in my experience"
