Why Municipal Golf Courses Shouldn’t Overlook Dynamic Pricing

Priswing Business Intelligence is enabling golf operators to measure the performance and understand the impact of their tee time marketplace listings at scale.

For years, resorts have mastered the art of dynamic pricing by optimizing room rates based on seasonality, events, customer demand, and booking behavior. Airlines followed suit, fine-tuning fares with precision based on geography, timing, and traveler segments. So why shouldn’t golf, especially resort golf, do the same? That’s the exact question that inspired the team behind Priswing . At Priswing, we saw the parallels between golf and the broader travel industry: both are experience-driven, demand-sensitive, and shaped heavily by often uncontrollable factors like weather, seasonality, local events, and holidays . But we didn’t stop at basic rules or manual pricing tweaks. Priswing’s machine learning algorithm continuously ingests tee time data, booking patterns, and demand signals to automatically pinpoint the ideal price at the ideal time so you’re always maximizing yield without sacrificing the golfer experience . We built a platform that brings the intelligence and adaptability of modern travel pricing to the tee sheet without adding complexity for your staff. Built for Resorts, Modeled After Travel Golf at a resort is rarely just a tee time, it’s part of a bigger experience. Whether it’s spring break in Scottsdale or a long holiday weekend in Hilton Head, demand is fluid but can be anticipated and prepared for if you have the right tools . With Priswing, resort courses can: Automatically adjust pricing based on key demand variables like day-of-week, weather forecasts, and booking lead time. Create special rates for high-demand days like holidays, large events, or tournament weekends—just like pricing out rooms during peak occupancy. Tailor pricing to specific customer segments like hotel guests, loyalty members, or stay-and-play packages to ensure the right price for the right golfer. Take Control with Business Intelligence Dynamic pricing is only part of the equation. The other piece is knowing what’s working and why . Priswing’s built-in Business Intelligence (BI) tools give resort operators a real-time window into performance. You can: Track revenue lift from dynamic pricing changes. Identify booking trends across date ranges, rate classes, or customer types. Measure how weather or promotions are impacting conversion. Easily share performance insights across departments, from golf operations to marketing. Data-driven decisions don’t just improve pricing, they shape your whole operation. Your Course, Your Strategy We understand that every resort is unique. That’s why Priswing was built to be flexible. You define your goals, whether it’s revenue maximization, volume, or guest experience, and we provide the pricing engine and data tools to execute it.
