Courses aren't priced — they're rated on stature, and their availability is live from our own course catalog. Most great courses exist only as GSPro community replicas (2,500+ on the SGT server, often renamed with a "DPC" prefix or a stand-in name to dodge trademark); a handful are officially licensed on Foresight FSX Play. The green "Playable in our bays ✓" badge below means we've got that course loaded and ready — tap the title for its Library page, or the gold button to book a bay.
Standing stacks on the tier: ⭐ Bucket-list (the ones everyone wants), 🔮 Hidden gem (the deep cut worth loading), 💎 White-whale (the rare one — real course, hard to find a good sim build). Availability is now LIVE from The Clubhouse's own course catalog — a green “Playable in our bays ✓” badge means you can load it here today, and the title links to its Library page. Rows we can't match, or that aren't in our sims yet, say so plainly; verify those in the GSPro in-app Course Downloader. The Augusta / TPC Sawgrass notes below are about build provenance (both were pulled on IP), not our catalog — re-check that status before featuring the story.
The courses everyone asks for. Almost all are GSPro community builds; a few are also licensed on FSX. The green badge tells you which are loaded here.
