GolfCommission | 2005-11-16 | 2 | 23 groups in the first wave and 21 in the second wave. There were holes in the tee times, which made it difficult to keep the pace of play going although many groups finished in less than four hours. Most groups were happy with the pace of play but a few felt rushed. Also noted there were no rounds after 3:00 pm. To monitor the groups and the pace of play more coordination is necessary and six Marshals are needed on the course. In summary there was no increase in the number of rounds, which in turn means no increase in revenue. The program is also very labor intensive for the Pro Shop and the Marshals. The General Manager stated that it is probably better to try the split tees in the spring. The suggestion was made to have the split tees on the Earl Fry Course due to the demand for the peak times on that course. The General Manager spoke with customers about the program and it was suggested to alternate between the two courses. The important marketing point is the four-hour round of golf. Customers not interested in playing that fast can play on the other course with straight tee times. 4.
