In a Top 25 in the USA, you might find someone making $250,000 year. I knew the guy who was #1 at Quail Hollow (PGA Tour course), who was the man in charge, when they lost their greens, 2 weeks before the event (2013). He was making $225,000 at the time. When he went out into the market looking for another job, he was getting offered in the $125,000 range. Superintendent's pay took a huge hit 10-15 years ago, when golf hit the skids.
Good stuff. Average includes all the local muni courses - which outweigh the private clubs. We have conditions worse than a muni
An assistant at a Platimun club is making 150,000.
Super at Merion makes 484,000
Oakmont makes 370,000
