Where Do We Go From Here?


The golf industry and its many components face significant challenges in 2010.  Recent published results by the National Golf Foundation show a slight but continuous decline in rounds played during the last decade.  Nationally, supply of golf courses seem to be coming close to a common spot on the graph with demand for rounds played.  While the reduction in rounds played, has been small, revenue from all the associated profit centers have declined significantly.  The good news is that if you are still in business you may have weathered the storm.  We all have adjusted our business models to accommodate what is happening.  Now it is incumbent on us move forward seeking out and maximizing future opportunities…Those survivors have a common approach to their businesses.  They understand the importance of constant unwavering customer service, aggressive and creative marketing programs maximizing the new technologies and maintaining their facilities in the best conditions possible.

From all of us here at the World Wide Golf Development, Ltd. family our wish is for a healthy, happy and successful 2010.
