Today was my most disheartening day as a golf course operator. Cutting greens this morning I found six divots from full swings on the greens. What motivates someone to take divots out of golf greens? I have no idea

My dad finished his journey. 97 years old, ran 5 golf courses. If you are from Northwest Indiana then you are part of the community that's well over 100,000 golfers who played at one of his golf courses. Chuck Hegan (1926-2023)

This right here is the reason I own my golf course. In Northwest Indiana there's really no place for mom's or dad's to teach their daughter's or sons how to golf. Owning this golf course is a pain in the ass a lot of times, but when I see this I know it's worth it

For $10 a day, our golf course offers the best babysitting service a parent could ask for Drop your kid off, pack them a lunch, we put it in the fridge, and let him golf all day for $10-$15 bucks They get exercise, learn golf, and learn respect. 20/30 kids did this all summer

Alcohol, don't bring it to a golf course. That's a really really simple concept. For those of you who don't understand this, golf courses are seasonal businesses and there's only a short span to make your money. Yeah, I get it. The price sometimes is really high, just pay it

Every US open Sunday I make my greens a little quicker. Think 7 1/2 to 10. Because we have small sloped greens & a lot of play, I have to keep the greens slow. But once a year, it's my turn. 7 1/2 to 10 might not seem like much, but it's fricking diabolical. I have fun with this
