LOOKING FOREWARD

PRICING

We are excited to announce that the Deer Run Golf Course is under new management! Mr. Phil Denham, PGA Professional, joins us from Okinawa AB, Japan & has some exciting new ideas he plans to implement.

Deer Run Golf Course is offering a new tournament rate to customers who would like to host a tournament. If you are interested in hosting your own tournament, the rate will be $6 per player for E1E4 and $11 per player for all others for 18 holes of play (cart not included). Hosting a tournament is a great fundraising opportunity for private organizations and booster clubs.

Be on the lookout for new tournaments and programs at the golf course that will include events for players of all skill levels from fun scrambles to open tournaments. If you are looking to improve your golf game, you are in luck! Deer Run is looking to bring in a golf instructor to provide individual lessons to both beginners & more advanced players. To help you look and play your best, the golf pro shop will be bringing in new inventory and clearing out the old! Be sure to check out their sale in March for some great deals and let them know if there are any new items you would love to see.

As the days become longer, take advantage of the daylight with Deer Run’s twilight rate. Starting at 3 p.m. seven days a week during the winter months, players E1-E4 can golf for $6 and all others for $9 (18 holes is not guaranteed, cart not included). Beginning on April 15, the twilight rate will start at 5 p.m. Visit the Deer Run Pro Shop to inquire about annual greens fees rates!
