And if you advertised yourself as the golf capital of the world and one of your top marketing features was “free golf for life,” and you were the fastest growing area in the country, you would want to build more courses to keep up with demand and population growth.

Actually, the millennials are more active than the groups around them:
Generation Swing
Different generations have their take on the game:
In 2021, 4% of Gen Z Americans (born between 1995-2012) picked up a club and said they played golf. For Millennial Americans (born between 1980-1994), 12% embraced the sport in 2021. As for Generation X Americans (born between 1965-1979), 7% joined the ranks of golf enthusiasts in 2021.
Each of these groups are their future......boomers are dying.
Good thing............their advertising is still true.
Golf Cap of World & Free golf for life.
