The presentation will conclude with a presentation from Keith Soriano, PGA, and Kate Drimel, PGA, summarizing the points and providing resources.

 

Hole Location Management - Strackaline - Ian Crick, PGA In this session I will outline the importance of setting hole locations and how it can influence play. Many factors must be taken into consideration when choosing hole locations. Such as green speeds, turf health, weather conditions and number of players, if hosting an event. If all of these factors are not weighed, pace of play can be affected, turf health will suffer and players will leave your facility with a poor taste in their mouths'. After leaving this session you will be armed with all the information needed to create policy and procedures at your facility that will ensure your event and daily course preparation is top notch. 3 takeaways attendees will learn at the session: 1. Each attendee will leave with an awareness of all the variables that should be taken into account before placing a hole location. 2. They will also leave with different strategies of how they can use hole locations to influence pace of play, golfer's enjoyment and help turf conditions. 3. Lastly, I will outline how a PGA Professional can involve their Superintendent, Tournament Chairs or any stakeholders in the hole location selection process and use data to affirm their decision.

 

This event is sponsored by the Colorado Section PGA.  Mile High Chapter members will receive 3 CE credits for attending.
