The “hundred-day war.” For many golf professionals, especially those in the north, the time between Memorial Day and Labor Day is cautiously labeled as such. This is a make-or-break time for a club in the heart of the season when play is at its highest capacity.
Depending on yearly weather patterns or general club usage, this period can easily eclipse the century mark. Club championships, member-guests, junior league matches and member instructional programs overflow the calendar and clubs demand long hours from key leaders of an often already understaffed golf operation.
