Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the economic downturn of 2008's effect on the golf industry. Explains that golf courses across the United States are introducing multiple tee options for more non-competitive players who want to play the game for fun. Details programs that courses are developing for beginners, juniors, and seniors to enjoy the course and amenities without feeling like a bother to more skilled players. States that "turf perfection is not a requirement to play golf." Concludes that "we are the end of an era in which many of us grew up, but we are also at the beginning of a new one which might be different, but I think it will be no less exciting." |
