That's tough, there are many private courses in the city limits that will let you book a tee time but charge you a freaking arm and a leg. As far as the other courses go a course that has very long holes for a guy who loves his driver would be Sirocco, it's on the South side of the city by Spruce Meadows (Approx. $80 or $90 cart included). My favorite course to play that is a decent price is always Shaganappi which is close to the core (Approx. $40 fee, $20 cart). Heather Glen is just west of the city on Glenmore trail and has 27 holes that are playable. So if he wants to do two rounds in a day he could golf the grove (9 holes) and the hills (9 holes) as an 18 in the morning and do the hills (same 9 holes) and the creek (new 9 holes) in the afternoon. Price is about $60 bucks there too. A decent course to work on short game is Douglas Dale which is only a par 60 so there are a lot of par 3's and if he is really advanced he may get bored with it. About $60 as well.

There are plenty of others in town too but those are my fav's out of the one's I've been to.
