Question: | "Our maintenance budget has been reduced for this season, but I'm sure players will continue to expect the same level of quality as in the past. Any suggestions to help protect the maintenance operation from severe criticism?" |
Source of Question: | Wyoming |
Answer/Response: | "Developing maintenance specifications will clearly outline what is expected of the maintenance staff and what players can expect on the golf course. Obviously the maintenance specifications will have to correlate well with the budget. Going through this exercise will allow course officials and players to put a direct cost on the maintenance procedures necessary to achieve the desired level of playing quality. Developing specifications is a good way to establish priorities on the golf course." |
