The Dallas Morning News course rankings are a team effort. The 80 Dallas Morning News panel members were given a ballot of 300 courses and asked to rate them on a 10-point scale. Panel members are golf professionals, golf course architects, superintendents, people involved in the golf course industry and amateurs. Here are some courses to consider checking out this year. #golf #golfcourses #golfing

Where are my golfers? I’m excited for this event…you know I specialise in leadership training but did you know there are SO many similarities between golf and being a leader? Playing golf has taught me so much about leadership! 🏌️♂️ Just like in golf, being a great leader means staying focused, being patient, and thinking strategically. Here are a few lessons golf has reinforced: 1. **Preparation is Key**: Just as I practice my swing, leaders must prepare for meetings and projects. 2. **Adaptability**: Weather changes on the course, and business conditions change too. Adapt and keep moving forward. 3. **Patience and Resilience**: Not every shot lands where you want it. Learn from mistakes and stay resilient. Both golf and leadership are continuous journeys of improvement. Let's keep refining our skills and striving for excellence! See you in June at the Whitby Chamber of Commerce golf event at Royal Ashburn Golf Club #Leadership #Golf #ContinuousLearning #Resilience #leadershiptraining #teetime #supportlocal #chamberofcommerce #businessowner #whitby

Offer primary products such as two/three tier spring memberships, discounts on bulk ticket purchases for seasonal golf matches. And offer secondary products such as group golf sessions, celebrity golf masterclasses, (like what chefs do), golf screenings in the club house, and offer by products that people from different backgrounds will enjoy, such as quality gastro and bar offerings, and a well stocked retail store. Any thoughts welcome on this question!

The Wall Street Journal highlights the surge in off-course play, especially at venues like Topgolf and simulators. These spaces offer flexibility, solid F&B, and cater to all ages, contributing to the game's growth and introducing newcomers to golf. With Topgolf expanding to over 90 locations by year's end, and considering my journey starting when we were venue #26 in 2016, it's incredible to witness this rapid evolution. This energy should continue to pave the way for more people to transition to traditional golf courses. Have you explored off-course golfing? #topgolf #golf #growthstory

The record number of people who played on a golf course for the first time in 2023: 3.4 Million The industry has had 10 straight years with more than 2 million beginners, with the past four topping 3 million. Prior to the pandemic-boosted totals of recent years, the previous recorded-high of 2.4 million was set in 2000, when Tiger Woods was at the height of his popularity. Off-course forms of golf -- such as entertainment golf venues -- are proving a valuable on-ramp for introductions, helping participants build confidence and comfort before visiting a golf course for the first time. Retention and conversion of newcomers remains an industry focus, and obstacle. #golfstatistics #andrewaheron
