Not all superintendents enjoy large annual budgets and sizeable staffs. Many who make up the foundation of what golf course architect Michael Hurdzan, Ph.D., calls “golf’s pyramid” maintain their facilities on shoestring budgets with staffs that often number only one.
In this issue of GCM, free-lance writer Trent Bouts takes a look at a handful of solo superintendents and how they’ve turned doing more with less into an art form. Also, senior associate editor Seth Jones profiles Col. John Morley, GCSAA’s founding father and the winner of the 2009 Old Tom Morris Award.
This month’s cover photo by John R. Johnson (www.golfphotos.us) features the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course in Jasper, Alberta, Canada, where 13-year GCSAA member Perry Cooper is superintendent.
