Golfing
Golf was "the" game for the newly affluent middle class in the boom years of the 1990's. No self-respecting business man was without his set of clubs and memberships. Things have cooled down a bit, but there are still all those courses, some of them world class, and with some of the cheapest green fees in the world. Thailand was a mecca of sorts for golfers from around Asia seeking out good courses for a fair price. Here are some links to directories of golf courses in Thailand:

- Nicer look that Golf Net, plus more courses to choose from.
