Abstract/Contents:States that problems experienced at one golf course are often being experienced by other courses in the area. When visiting a course that they do not play on a regular basis, golfers tend to "enjoy their new surroundings and soak in the golf experience". rather than search for the occassional weed. However, at their own course, every flaw is noticed and criticized. Preparing for a big event is another cause of the "only at our golf course" problem. Advises that each facility should strive to correct existing problems but not let themselves believe they are the only one coping with a problematic course.
