Palm Desert, CA-The Desert Willow Golf Resort in Palm Desert is using some new strategies to attract golfers.  Giving players Tee Prizes to go along with their green fees is a nice touch to bring extra value to customers and give them a little memento of playing the course.  Discounted rates over the holiday weekend and restaurant vouchers included in the price of a round, are a great way to fill the golf course and bring players in throughout the day. It is nice to see that there is still some business going on out there instead of just the same old status quo.

So let’s do the math on this one.  $55.00 Green Fee-includes tee prize, $15.00 lunch, a beer or margarita, a golf cart, range balls and you get to play at one of the finest public golf facilities in the Coachella Valley.  Sounds like a no-brainer if you enjoy playing golf  or would like to give Desert Willow a try.

Desert Willow has also introduced another interesting opportunity to try out their beautiful Firecliff and Mountain View golf courses.  It’s called the Gridiron Challenge and incorporates golf with a little football.  It is an “18 and Dine” of sorts.  The $25.00 Green Fee-includes tee prize, golf cart, range balls, closest to the pin and long drive competitions for 18-holes. All players are then invited back to the clubhouse to watch the games and for more fun and raffle prizes.  Sounds like a great way to get the girlfriend or wife to go watch football after you take her to play in a little fun afternoon of golf.

These are just a couple of ways that Desert Willow is bringing a bit of excitement back into the game of golf.  I wish them all the success in their effort to bring some life back into the sport.
