Is TrackPass Worth It?
The Value Math for Texas Golfers
Updated June 2026 • 5 min read
TrackPass costs $199/year. It covers 95 public golf courses across Texas — 1 free round per year at partner courses, and green fees reimbursed up to $50/round (1 round/month, up to $199/year) at any other Texas public course. The question isn't whether the pitch sounds good. It's whether the math works for how you actually play golf.
Here's the honest breakdown.
The Break-Even Math
Texas public courses average $35–55 for 18 holes during peak times. Here's when TrackPass pays for itself:
| Avg green fee | Reimbursed rounds to fully offset the $199 pass |
|---|---|
| $25 (budget munis) | 8 rounds |
| $35 (mid-range munis) | 6 rounds |
| $45 (DFW parkland courses) | 5 rounds |
| $50+ (premium daily-fee courses) | 4 rounds |
The 95 covered courses span every major Texas metro. Reimbursements run up to $50 per round, one round per month, capped at $199 per year — so a regular public golfer gets the full pass price back over 4–8 reimbursed rounds. On top of that, every partner course gives you one free round per year, and that's where the pass moves from "paid for itself" to actual savings.
Who TrackPass Is Right For
-
✓
You play 8+ rounds per year at public courses. At 10 rounds, you're looking at $150–350 in savings at typical Texas rates.
-
✓
You travel within Texas for golf. TrackPass covers courses from El Paso to Beaumont. If you're road-tripping to play courses in a new city, getting your green fee reimbursed at each stop is significant.
-
✓
You like variety. The IndyPass model means you're not locked into one course. Play Lions Muni in Austin, Memorial Park in Houston, Brackenridge in San Antonio — all in the same year.
-
✓
You're a founding member. $199 is the founding-member rate, locked in for your first season. The price increases to $279/year after launch.
Who It's Not Right For
-
✗
You play the same course every week. TrackPass gives 1 free round per year at a partner course, or green fee reimbursement (up to $50/round, 1 round/month, up to $199/year) at any other course. If you play one local muni 40 times a year, a season pass at that course beats TrackPass.
-
✗
You play fewer than 5 rounds a year. At that frequency, TrackPass doesn't break even at most Texas course rates.
-
✗
You only play private clubs. TrackPass covers public courses only — no private clubs, no country clubs.
City-by-City Value
7 covered courses including Lions Municipal ($35), Morris Williams ($38), Roy Kizer ($42), Jimmy Clay ($34), Hancock ($18). At those rates, you break even in 5–11 rounds. Austin TrackPass members who play a different city course per quarter are well ahead by year-end.
22 covered courses including TPC Craig Ranch ($85), Firewheel ($55), Cedar Crest ($35), Pecan Valley ($40), Rockwood ($35), Luna Vista ($32). DFW golfers have the best density of TrackPass courses in Texas — break-even is typically 4–6 rounds.
8 covered courses including Memorial Park ($40), Brock Park ($38), Gus Wortham ($32), Hermann Park ($26). At Memorial Park's $40 green fee, five reimbursed rounds cover the full pass price before you've touched any other course.
7 covered courses including Brackenridge Park ($50), Cedar Creek ($55), Mission del Lago ($40), Willow Springs ($42), Olmos Basin ($40). SA golfers with variety in their game break even in 5 rounds.
The Bottom Line
TrackPass is worth it if you play 6 or more rounds per year at different Texas public courses. For golfers who like variety — different cities, different courses — it pays for itself quickly and gets more valuable as the partner network grows.
At the $199 founding member rate, it's the cheapest way to have access to 95 Texas public courses without being locked into one.
