Question: | "I've been a golf course superintendent for several years, and while I love to play golf, my work schedule makes regular participation in the game difficult. I've often heard the importance of regular play emphasized as being a good public relations/credibility tool. Any suggestions on how I can improve the frequency and regularity of playing the course I'm responsible for maintaining?" |
Source of Question: | Kentucky |
Answer/Response: | "First, approach the playing of the course your [you] are responsible for maintaining as part of your job. In other words, it should be done during a regular business day and not pushed to evenings or weekends. Pick a weekday that accommodates your schedule and the club's calendar of activities. Once selected, block a tee time that you will use each week. Interested members can be encouraged to fill out your group and, in so doing, combine the regular play of the course you maintain with an opportunity to discuss concerns of interested players. Be sure to discuss this strategy with the Green Committee or your boss, but with a little planning a regular tee time can be a good policy." |
