‘Pop-Ups’ Among Offerings for Golfers and Families
Size can be a problem, especially when you’re crowding an hour’s worth of players into a golf shop designed for one foursome at a time. That was what Joe O’Conner discovered in his first year as the owner of Holly Ridge Golf Course in Sandwich, Massachusetts. His golf shop was too small for the crowds. As a result, retail sales, especially in ladies’ goods, suffered.
It was a dream-like moment for Tommy Witt back in 1978. He was 24 and the new head superintendent at Riverhill Club in Kerrville, Texas, where legend Byron Nelson was part owner.
