Abstract/Contents:Discusses changes in the golf industry. Also discusses how "the golf course industry [can] reestablish its niche in an active person's lifestyle." States that "every golfer that steps onto...courses is not only a customer, but also [a] guest and needs to be treated as such." Recommends "[providing] a golfing atmosphere that is fun and relaxing." Advises "[finding] out why...regular and permanent tee time golfers come back" and "continue to be innovative at...individual golf courses." Concludes that "[the industry needs] to remember one of the main reasons golf was created: to enjoy the game, to be with friends, and to do it all within the framework of nature."
