Thoughts From a Foolish Golf Course Superintendent

A golf course is poetry without words. (3/5/19)

A young Superintendent hopes to learn to give advice; a wise one hopes to learn to accept it. (3/4/19)

Hiding from a mistake is different than hiding from remorse. (3/3/19)

A lazy Superintendent is brought down by his own laziness;  a schemer is trapped by his own schemes.  (3/2/19)

A golfer who complains about bunkers is like a thief who complains about prison; I say it again, a golfer who complains about bunkers is like a Superintendent who complains about responsibility. (3/1/19)

Sometimes, the truth is more complicated than we want it to be; sometimes, it simpler than we like it to be. (2/28/19)

One Superintendent exploits his workers; another exploits himself. (2/27/19)

One Superintendent parades in his high and lofty position, but another gives little heed to the appointments of men;  I say it again, one Superintendent wallows in the praise of men, but another recognizes only the whisper of the wind.  (2/26/19)

A young Superintendent occupies a gifted greenkeeper with everyday assignments; a prudent one keeps him focused on his gift. (2/25/19)

A wise pessimist is lacking in wisdom; a foolish optimist is incomplete in foolishness.  (2/24/19)
