New Opportunities

As some of you may know I have been writing articles for Inside Golf online magazine for a year. I have recently been asked by the publisher at Inside Golf if I would be interested in starting up a new section of the magazine pertaining to golf course maintenance, construction and design.

The new title would be as Associate Publisher for Inside Golf. I see this as a fantastic opportunity to spread the good word to golfers and the public in general about the postive benefits that golf courses have on the environment.

This new job means continuing to write articles as well as collecting articles from others in the golf industry. The articles do no necessarily have to relate to environmental concerns but rather about the industry in general. The online publication will be emailed to subscribers of the magazine and will be used as a trade magazine.

I am looking for contributions from people in the industry who are interested in sharing information about what it takes to prepare a golf course for play. I am talking about everything from taking a raw piece of property and designing a course, to shaping and construction to the day-to-day maintenance that must take place before a ball is ever hit.

I see this as a chance to enlighten golfers about the hard work that goes into a golf course just so they can enjoy (or not) themselves while getting some exercise and fresh air.

If you think you have what it takes to get an article published please do not hestitate to contact me about the topic you would like to write about or put together a 750 word piece along with a supporting picture that can be used for the publication.
