Gordon is back!
Gordon Witteveen, retired greenkeeper, golf course owner, author and long-time TurfNet contributor, is back after a short hiatus with a new blog, The Way I See It. Topics will include commentary on the state of the industry, maintenance practices, surviving the politics of private clubs and the challenges of being a golf course owner today.
He will also sprinkle in some humorous anecdotes from his years on the golf course, some of which were "edited out" of the early drafts of his first textbook, Practical Golf Course Maintenance, co-authored with Mike Bavier, CGCS.
