Thoughts From a Foolish Golf Course Superintendent

A Superintendent who oppresses his staff is like a disease that ravages the turf. (10/12/19)

One Superintendent starts the day with fear; another starts it with freedom. (10/11/19)

One Superintendent spends his days trying to straighten crooked lines; another man spends his time trying to make straight paths crooked. (10/10/19)

One Superintendent finds freedom in logic and reason; another finds terror. (10/9/19)

One Superintendent is thwarted by the privilege of others, and another is propelled by the privilege he owns;  I say it again, one Superintendent is embittered by the privilege of others, and another gives thanks for the privilege he receives.  (10/8/19)

One golfer complains when it starts to drizzle; another clasps his hand over his mouth when a storm approaches.  (10/7/19)

Oxygen is an enemy of many diseases.  (10/5/19)

Being pushed onto a fairway is different than being pushed out to pasture. (10/5/19)

When it rains during a corporate golf outing, one owner is sad and disappointed, and another is sad and grateful…maybe even joyful.  (10/4/19)

One Superintendent believes nature is unforgiving and another trembles in the wilderness; I say it again, one Superintendent believes nature is unforgiving and another rejoices in the morning dew.  (10/3/19)
