Golf Club Membership as a 1st Year?

I play a good bit of golf and want to try to stay in playing shape through my analyst stint. Is it worth getting a club membership? Non-NYC so price / convenience isn’t as big of a hindrance, primarily just cost/benefit. Am I realistically going to have much time to play on weekends, even if it’s just range time or 9 holes? Would it be so little that it’d be a waste of money? 

Appreciate any insight
