I'm sorry this list has not been updated in 4 years. Its rigorous research now trying find courses that offer birthday discounts compared to 14 years ago when I first posted the Birthday Golf Specials list.
When I first started the Birthday Golf List it was ONLY for courses that gave you a Free single player round on or around your birthday. Then I added just 2 for 1 deals to the list.
With this "resurrection" of the Birthday Golf List, to qualify a golf course will need to give a free 18 hole round equivalent to their walking rate or greater. For example, if a golf course is giving a free option to ride but a player needs to still pay the green fee, that offer is not listed. However, providing a free green fee but player has the option to pay a cart fee, does count to be listed.
Also, NO purchase by the birthday golf player is required for a golf course to qualify to be listed. If a player must spend money on joining something to get the Birthday Golf discount, that offer is not listed. However, joining a free email list for example does count to be listed.
Lastly, 2 for 1, 3 for 2 and 4 for 3 deals where the birthday player's full green fee is covered counts to be listed. 4 for 5 deals and higher do not count to be listed.
We want only significant deals listed because a birthday is significant.
Thanks again for your help! ~ JohnnyGK

Being Active in an Online Golf Community Like Greenskeeper: Why Our Community is so Vibrant
I was surfing the web back in December 2006 when I stumbled onto GK. At first I used it mainly to get course information, and aeration schedules. Then I decided to start posting on the forums, and became hooked.
My overall experience has been a positive one. What I like about the GK forums is that golfers of all skill levels give their honest opinions about all areas of golf and on course conditions.
The only negatives that I have come across is the ego bashing that sometimes takes place between 2 or 3 individuals who hijack a thread and argue over who is more correct on a certain subject. None of us were born an expert in this game, if you work at it long enough you get to be single digit index players, and some of us lose our edge with age or not enough play time.
I am a believer in supporting public and municipal courses; they are the backbone of this game. Not all of us can afford to play high-end courses, or belong to country clubs.
I will continue to participate in giving my opinions and to post on the forums, that’s what makes for an effective environment.
