This is brilliant. I'm pretty sure the writers were part of a group who presented to the @TheSAGCA a few years ago. It made a great impression and shows off how important golf courses are to the suburban environment.
Today is Thank a Superintendent Day! SAGCA sends a huge thank you to all the Supers and greens staff that play such an important role in the management of our golf courses. We are proud of the relationship that so many of our members have with you all. #ThankASuper#ASTMA#SAGCA
@RichardZokol @johnhuggan @RandA@USGA "Will the game's custodians ever see sense and act to reduce the distance the modern golf ball flies?" This is a great piece by Huggy which appeared in @TheSAGCA Journal Issue 17 (2015)
