| I think it really depends on where you live. I live in Minnesota, and we have a relatively short season as compared to most places, so I think that people really try to take advantage of it as often as they can.
What worries me is that some of the smaller par 3 courses were kids first learn how to play are shutting down and being replaced by housing developments instead because they just don't bring in enough money to justify the cost of leaving all of that land "undeveloped".
At this rate, in my area, kids will only be exposed to golf if their parents are willing to pay $15 to $20 a round, which can get expensive for kids even at the municipal courses.
