The New York Times posted a piece of writing this week that the USGA is planning a five-12 months observe at the challenges going through the golf industry, in particular on the player stage.
Topics to be protected include the cost of the game, the time it takes to play and golfer entertainment.
Since there is continually talk approximately the closing of courses and how humans are garaging their golf equipment, the USGA is making a concerted attempt to reverse negativity within the sport.
A few months earlier, the USGA came out with a brand new and improved video-directed website designed to assist train all gamers understand the regulations of golf. As we know, if golfers apprehend the rules, chances are they (and their companions) can have a extra worthwhile revel in.
The U.S.G.A. Will partner with the University of Minnesota on the look at but I say, allow's carry questions to the humans. "Why no longer additionally partner with corporations at the internet?"
I asked the followers of a golf organization on Facebook the subsequent question,
"If you may provide recommendation to the US Golf Association to enhance the game on the participant level, what would you say?"
To enhance golfing for me, I would discover a manner to get rid of ducks safely from the courses on which I play. There is nothing worse than having your ball land on goose poop! I might also ramp up ranger action to assist accelerate play for amateurs who either do not know or don't care about retaining the sport moving.
Here are some solutions from the golfing group - U.S.G.A. Take observe!
1. Bobby Alford said, "Just lower the price. And stop making 7,300 yard courses."
2. Ciaran Campbell - "Rangers keeping a watch for slow play. Maybe some "tee by handicap" system to stop high handicap players playing from back tees during comps - it would probably help their enjoyment."
3. Gus Gurevitch - "The push for municipal monthly fees to return to all city owned courses. Most have disappeared."
4. Geoff Jordan - "Pace of play and play-ability should be the focus. Rangers and courses need to do more to speed-up slower players, especially in early rounds. They must TEACH and enforce "ready-golf" with slow players."
Geoff persevered, "Golf carts seems to make slow gamers even slower. If they can't speed-up, get them off the route. Play-potential - more moderen publications need to be walker pleasant.
Tee and vegetables closer collectively.
Courses must standardize flag colour/markings for the front/mid/back pins at the side of yardage markers F/M/B. (it would not do me any precise to recognize pin position 2 while the scorecard is one hundred twenty yards away with my partner in the golf cart. Let golfers recognize by way of flag color/markings when they may be within the fairway."
5. SuzyFromFlorida mentioned, "...Gradual play is the killer. You may be the worst golfer ever and still play rapid. But you need to gain knowledge of the way to do it. A whole education process needs to be installed area, regulations need to be set, after which enforced by rangers. Golf becomes more exciting for anybody. Of course, this may in no way take place in our lifetime."
What recommendation could you provide to the usG.A. To enhance the golf revel in?
