GolfNow buys EZlinks/Teeoff.com

Yeah, that's gonna be good for us.

Deep pockets. Are we next? <grin>

That sucks. I usually just book on the course website and it will usually be run by Ezlinks. Some are golf now. I prefer the Ezlinks do to no fees. I quit using Golfnow 5 years ago. I might have to just start calling the course to set up times now.

I use a couple of other services with nationwide reach for my booking options while traveling. One is Golf18Network and I've always been pleased with them. So I just went to their site to see how they are doing and I was REDIRECTED to teeoff.com. So I go to the 'about us' at the bottom of teeoff.com and I'm told to click on a link for ezlinks.com. I go there and there is a ribbon with the news of the acquisition by Golfnow.

Do we alert our Congressional representatives that there is a potential anti-trust violation brewing in our beloved golf industry in which we participate and use this ever growing conglomerate to access tee times?

Depends on whether or not he has been paid off by Golfnow.😁

That sucks. It's nice having choices. I just used TeeOff twice while on vacation. At the two sites often have different courses available.

Golfnow is hit or miss in my area. Seems like most of the time they want more than what the course is charging.

I have used GolfNow, EZLinks and Tee Off but if I am looking now, I got to www.supremegolf.com as they look at all of the deals including Groupon, Golf Advisor and GolfZing.

I don't like that Golfnow bought them though as I have had free bookings on the competitions sites instead of the booking fee that GolfNow charges.
