Golf course care
Many postings about golfers lack of care of our courses, such as not raking sand traps, fixing divots, slow play. One thing that would help greatly is to give authority to, and require, ambassadors to uphold these standards. Most, with a few exceptions, just deliver sand and water for the privilege of half priced golf. They are leery of being terminated or reprimanded if they upset the "privileged" people who feel they do not need to help maintain the courses. Most "good conditioned" courses outside the Villages have some enforcement policies they adhere to.

Yes, I agree with Steve. The golfers MUST take some responsibility to know the rules and practice the appropriate golfing etiquette. AND, help your guests by teaching them what is appropriate behavior on the course, be it Championship or Executive.

Until such time as this issue gets appropriate visibility in the happy paper, in the home owners association papers, in the starter shacks, in the weekly recreation schedule etc........there will never be any improvement.
And based on no negative publicity policy/position by or about any entity of TV.....it ain't gonna happen. |

That would be fantastic, but what ideas does anyone have that could make this a reality?

Fact is the owners of the villages don’t really care about the conditions of their golf courses if they did they wouldn’t be in the shape that are.

OK so let's rule out the word "fact" and insert the existing or as is neglected condition of the golf courses not being addressed.

Then, they should say so. The "owners" are great at marketing; public relations, not so much, even for a privately-held company.

That is why I continue to recommend write to Mark Morse and Jennifer Paar that one of their center piece promises in advertising is in decay! |

That isn't how things work here. We aren't in Kansas anymore. And to cheer you up, in just ELEVEN days the snowbirds and their feet who have been adding to the feet who have been abusing the golf courses, the snowbirds, who we all love, will go home.
