The Value of a Golf Course

There are many new courses being built. One of the stops was in Lordsburg New Mexico or jury met with some community leaders at the bank. It was a lesson to me on how important a golf course can be to a community. Lordsburg is a nice little town on a main highway, but the leaders were having trouble attracting professional people. They felt a golf course would help. A golf course is an important amenity, especially to higher income people. Stan Metsker, On the Course: The Life and Times of a Golf Course Superintendent, 1996

Golf courses have transformed the economies of entire regions. Of course, the better the golf course, the greater the impact.

More so if it is done economically.

It really does pay to have the job done exceptionally well the first time.
