      few hundred dollars compared like near $0-$100 for a lot of sports with free courts/fields at parks (basketball, volleyball, soccer, and flag football are like $20 for a whole group to be able to play for as long as a ball lasts, sports like baseball and tennis require individuals to have some equipment but far less than golf costs), that’s still kinda a lot, especially as a basic cost to enter. OTOH… I have more than one bike and I spent nearly $3K on one solely for hobby use when I was making roughly minimum wage, so its far from elitist.

          Exactly

          I know plenty of people who golf on the weekends who make our state’s minimum wage

          Or hell going down to the local driving range is pretty fun as well and something I do on occasion
