Player Feedback

"I was very impressed by the entire OpenRounds experience – it worked so smoothly and easily. The course was beautiful and we were treated like we were members. We’ll be using OpenRounds again for sure!"

Hugh
Florida

"Big fan of OpenRounds. I gave a specific request on dates and tee times and the Concierge team responded with multiple options and course suggestions immediately. They booked our times and offered easy electronic payment. I even asked to change our times a week before and they were able to accommodate our group of 16. Looking forward to using them again on our next trip!"

Hank
New Jersey

"I used OpenRounds to play two beautiful clubs in Florida in one trip. We were treated like members and had a great experience!"

Mark
Indiana

"I was the first member at my club to use OpenRounds. In one winter season I used it a half-dozen times. To me, this service is truly phenomenal."

Andrew
Massachusetts

"This is a really terrific service that I’ve always wanted to see built."

Todd
Florida

"Communicating with OpenRounds was like having my own personal assistant while booking a tee time during travel. The process was seamless from initial booking to changing plans, my "golf caddy" responded quickly with accurate information. The host course was expecting my arrival and extremely welcoming. OpenRounds is my new go to when booking away golf!"

Club Feedback

"OpenRounds’ services are built to help golf professionals manage outside play in a manner that is highly professional, consistent with the needs of clubs, and allows us total control."

Director of Golf
Indiana

"Joining the network will satisfy the travel needs of your members, add revenue to your club, and return valuable time back to your day. OpenRounds is an all-round benefit that comes at no cost to your club."

PGA Professional
New Jersey

"Being part of OpenRounds has not only increased our member satisfaction, it has allowed us to showcase our club to visiting private-club golfers. OpenRounds offers a variety of options for those seeking to play quality courses throughout the country. Our traveling members just love how easy it is to use."

PGA Professional
Florida

"I've been looking for a platform that can help us be more efficient in handling this important aspect of our business, and we’ve found it with Open Rounds. We have total control of who has access to playing here and it allows our membership to either make their own arrangements or go thru our staff for requests to play other private Clubs."

PGA Professional
Indiana

"If you're like me, having a better system for handling unaccompanied play requests from both members and folks from other Clubs is something I’m excited about."

PGA Professional
Colorado

"I think it's a great service for my membership and may save me some phone calls this winter!"

Director of Golf
Massachusetts

"From the beginning of our relationship, OpenRounds has been easy to work with, creative and imaginative with their thoughts and ideas, and most of all interested in growing the game of golf through innovative technology and first class customer service."

PGA Section Executive Director

"Even before our Section started discussions with OpenRounds, several of our highly respected members were already using the platform—that certainly gave them a lot of credibility with us.  We’ve had a great relationship with Jonathan and his team for going on two years. They’ve delivered on everything they promised to our clubs, and the feedback I’ve received has been 100% positive."

PGA Section Executive Director

"OpenRounds has provided our professionals the opportunity to streamline the reciprocal process. As their golf members travel the country, they can request privileges at a network of clubs they may not have had access to in the past. That opportunity makes our professionals look really good. From a facility standpoint, it provides additional outside revenue without any investment, so it’s a true win-win proposition. I would recommend OpenRounds to any professional."
