Golf Talk Urges You To Support Your Local Home Golf Course

Yesterday, Saturday, while working in the backyard, alongside the Sidewinder golf course, I was golf talking to myself about how the number of golfers coming by has diminished. I thought "Well, it is May...and this is Arizona...and our winter visitors started going back home last month". They have to get back to do taxes, of course, and Grandma wants to be home for Mother's Day.

Another thing did occur to me, however, while I was working hard at watching those folks putting out on the 15th green - We better support our local golf course during this recession if we want to enjoy our sport when it's over. .

Keeping a golf course in good playing condition is an expensive proposition. We see the workers and the equipment every day outside our window, so we have a pretty good understanding what it takes to keep Sidewinder and its sister course, Dinosaur Mountain, among the best privately-owned, open-to-the-public golf courses in the state. Consequently, we know how tough it must be to keep the bottom line black for any golf course during these difficult times.

So, we just wanted to remind our fellow golf lovers to play and support your local or home course. Yea, we know it's fun to go play courses in other towns, but their local players will take care of them. If you want the grass to stay green, and the greens to stay fast at your course, go to the driving range, play a round of golf - and take your Mother to brunch at your local home golf course.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to all you Mom's. Where would we all be without you?
