Abstract/Contents: | Discusses golf course greens fees in 2009, stating that "with the economy in a recession and golf rounds down, many courses may be tempted to discount green fees to lure in more golfers." Suggests that "courses should find alternative methods to get more golfers." Presents an example of a golf course that discounted fees, stating that "the (regular greens fee) crowd comes in and buys things in the golf shop, they stay after the round and have dinner...But the (discounted) crowd played golf and just left. And (the course) had more wear." |
