Abstract/Contents: | Describes how the Heart of the Ozarks Junior Golf Foundation is building a four-hole junior golf facility adjacent to the driving range at the Rivercut Golf Course, Springfield, MO. States that "unique course features will include low-maintenance Meyer zoysiagrass putting greens and tees, a 2,500-square-foot bentgrass practice putting green, practice sand bunker, landscaping and water display, starter building, and a special four-foot asphalt circular path for walkers, spectators, and wheelchair participants." Discusses how the new course will be maintained and what amenities will be available. States that "this model junior golf facility is an affordable beginner-friendly layout and won't take long to play. Hopefully, it will motivate your course to use existing land, such as the driving range, and convert it into beginner links." |
