I go whenever I'm invited but I don't really seek out going... last year I did 99 holes at tree tops with a group of dudes for the first time as a golf weekend and it was pretty damn awesome. They had somebody Bow out so my buddy called me up... it cost $300 and included two nights lodging, two breakfast, and 99 holes... I would suggest you look into that.
I'm not really picky on courses either I just like going somewhere new. And because I don't go that often I don't really care about the price.
