14 bars listed here...stars are beside ones where I have had at least had a beer (I don't really drink distilled spirits). The Dead Mule Club gets two stars because I actually tended bar there once many years ago.

During my 25 years tending bar in Chapel Hill/Carrboro I never enjoyed Bar Golfers...at The Hardback Cafe they could be very much in the way and by the time they got to Tijuana Fats/Henry's Bistro they were usually so lit as to either be unservable or true pains in the ass. Back in those days The Dead Mule was a private club so it was not on the circuit. Local 506 was the same. I do not ever remember Bar Golfers at The Cave, I think it was too scary. Bar Golf was not played at The Orange County Socialist Club -- too, too far from campus.

The article linked in the post above does have some interesting observations about what drinks are popular and the nature of some of the clubs.
