Abstract/Contents:"Enhancing the superintendent's image within the golf industry and at most courses is a very real need. Hollywood's depiction of Carl in Caddyshack did not present today's professional superintendent in a positive light. Such images linger in the minds of golfers, who already have the perception that growing and mowing grass on a golf course is straightforward and comparable to the home lawn experience." Provides a list of suggestions for superintendents to follow if they wish to promote their image as a professional to the grounds staff, golfers, and their supervisors.
