Joke or not you can bet this idea is DOA. That said, Like others involved with golf, I am concerned about less and less golfers in this country. The courses are over built, too hard for the average golfer, too expensive and take too much time to play.
Its pretty easy to see why there are fewer golfers. There are folks much more informed than me and have much more at stake trying to attack this problem.
It's a little late now but any new courses should be built like the new courses in TV. I think they have done a great job trying to balance the various ages and skill levels of golfers here in The Villages. To cut down on time-----make nine holes the rule instead of the exception and make the courses shorter instead of longer for the average "joe/Jane" golfer.
