| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of golf course management companies. States that "golf course management companies evolved because country clubs, resort courses, municipal courses and other golf facilities are businesses first, recreational outlets second." Suggests that "the biggest advantage [golf course management companies] offer to course owners is cost containment...For the length of the contract, the owners know exactly what's going to be spent each year. For them it becomes a fixed cost." |
