If that's the case where the local first responders have hole #'s of specific courses already identified/mapped out, it's hard to imagine why it took so much time to get to a rec center.



ON EDIT: Here's where I found it. It's in the 'Good Golf Guide (page 12 of the PDF).

Do you know why after calling 911 they want you to call the country club....its because the country club will then make a landline call to 911 as backup to your cell call....and to provide a clearer direction as to exactly where the incident has occured and how the EMTs can get there.
