If your lawn starts going downhill, you will notice it. If your golf course goes downhill, you will notice it. In both cases, your maintenance people should be held accountable and set things right. You don't reward failure or you just buy more failure.
Everyone living in TV has a stake in our courses. Everyone has the right to comment.
The golf courses, even if you never stepped on one, are critical to the water management engineering. - look how most fairways are lower than houses. It keeps insurance losses low.
