When you say "restaurant review," do you mean you're a food critic? Do you write reviews? If so, perhaps your meals out would be deducible. If you go to ABC restaurant, and write a review for ABC website, and that review earns you serious profit after expenses, you could argue it was a necessary business expense.
If this is one of those websites consumers go to and enter their reviews, no. That would be like me writing an article about deducting auto expenses, then writing off my personal vehicle expenses.
Your statement "I just want to deduct the cost of playing at other courses" is quite transparent. You don't say anything about the expenses being necessary. You just "want" to write off the expenses.
Good luck with that. The IRS closely scrutinizes so-called "business" expenses for things like, oh, restaurants and golf courses.
If these were really necessary business expenses, you wouldn't have to ask.If I create a golf course review site would some of my golf be tax deductible?
business expenses have to have a legitimate reason to be claimed
what you are suggesting here with both the restaurant review and the golf review appears very suspect
you have to be careful that they expenses are legitimately a business reasonIf I create a golf course review site would some of my golf be tax deductible?
You would need to prove that the websites generate income.
You would have to prove the expenses were less than that income.
