Dear FSGA GHIN Member,
Last week we contacted you about your GHIN handicap. Many of you
responded to our request, and contacted your golf professionals,
urging them to stay on the GHIN service. We have been in contact with
your club's staff and they have indicated that they have no intention
to change your handicap service.
At this time, please do not approach your professional any further to
express concern. However, the next time you see your professional,
please thank them for their support of amateur golf.
We need to emphasize that the FSGA has the greatest respect for the
golf professionals at your club. Our concern was exclusively directed
at their trade organization that has been sending your professionals
numerous emails, urging them to abandon the GHIN handicap service.
Regrettably, we had to respond to the onslaught of emails, and we were
forced to contact all members at our clubs at once - even club's like
yours, that had no intention to move away from GHIN and the FSGA.
Please forgive us if we caused you any undue concern.
Please thank your professional staff for us, and thank you very much
for your support.
Kind regards,
Jim Applegate
President, Florida State Golf Association
