BREAKING: GreensKeeper.org Announces WORTH THE GREEN FEE Awards 2021

Worth the Green Fee Honors for 2021 from GreensKeeper.org

Best Playing Conditions Winners for 2021 wouldn’t be complete without the Worth the Green Fee honors as well. So GreensKeeper.org presents its Worth the Green Fee Honors for 2021.

“Worth the Green Fee” is award to the golf courses open to the public listed on GreensKeeper.org that stand out above the rest with our site users at providing a consistent, quality golf experience at an outstanding price.

Let’s face it, golf can be VERY expensive, especially post Covid-19. Thankfully for us, it doesn’t have to be. All you have to know is where to play to get your best value and that’s something GreensKeeper.org excels. In addition to helping golfers decide where to play their next round of golf based on reviews, ratings, and maintenance alerts, we’ve recently revamped our GK Coupons, GK Plays and GK Guru Visits. Stay tuned for more chances to play some spectacular golf with our GK Golf Club or our USGA sanctioned SCGA GK Golf Club.

How Award Winners Are Determined

Golf Course Reviews and ratings submitted by our 76,000+ GreensKeeper.org community are tabulated over 12 months. Winners are determined for each area.

This year we divide awards into 11 Regions — San Diego County, Orange County, Los Angeles County, Inland Empire, Santa Barbara County, Palm Springs Region, and Ventura County with Regional Winners for Southern Nevada, Southern California, Central California, and Northern California.

We provide the list below in no particular order. This is done on purpose. Any golf course that provides outstanding conditions in their region should not overshadow other golf courses simply because of their location. For most avid golfers, the playing experience is what matters. Knowing where to play in your area is important.

Greenskeeper.Org Awarded For the Good of the Game Award 2017 by the CGCOA

JUST IN: GreensKeeper.org Announces BEST PLAYING CONDITIONS AWARDS 2021

Winners Best Playing Conditions for 2021 from GreensKeeper.org

Post Covid-19, It’s finally back! Greenskeeper.org presents it’s Best Golf Playing Conditions Awards for 2021.

Not to be confused with “Worth the Green Fee,” “Best Playing Conditions” is awarded to golf courses open to the public listed on Greenskeeper.org that stand out above the rest with our site users at providing consistently the best greens, fairways, rough, tee boxes and bunkers around.

The job of the superintendent is the life blood of the golf course industry and most important contributing factor to enjoying a golf experience. It takes enormous dedication, resources and expertise by a superintendent and their staff to provide excellent turf conditions. A golf course is a living, breathing organism whose health is constantly in flux. Greenskeeper.org’s trademark and creed, “Know Before You Go”®, centers on communicating these current playing conditions. The rating system used on Greenskeeper.org is in part created by superintendents.

How Awards Winners Are Determined

Golf Course reviews and ratings submitted by our 76,000+ Greenskeeper.org community are tabulated over 12 months. Winners are determined for each area.

We divide awards into 10 Regions or Sections — San Diego County, Orange County, Los Angeles County, Inland Empire, Santa Barbara County, Palm Springs Region, and Ventura County with Regional Winners for Southern Nevada, Southern California, Central California, and Northern California.

Editor’s Note: Johnny GK and Greenskeeper.Org has been recognized by the California Golf Course Owners Association as Good for the Game of Golf in 2017. It proves that both golfers and golf course operators understand the benefit of working with Greenskeeper.Org. We are the RESOURCE where avid golfers come to make their decision where to play their next round. “Know Before You Go”® with Greenskeeper.Org. You’ll be glad you did.

Happy Columbus Day

IN 1492

In fourteen hundred ninety-two
Columbus sailed the ocean blue.

He had three ships and left from Spain;
He sailed through sunshine, wind and rain.

He sailed by night; he sailed by day;
He used the stars to find his way.

A compass also helped him know
How to find the way to go.

Ninety sailors were on board;
Some men worked while others snored.

Then the workers went to sleep;
And others watched the ocean deep.

Day after day they looked for land;
They dreamed of trees and rocks and sand.

October 12 their dream came true,
You never saw a happier crew!

“Indians! Indians!” Columbus cried;
His heart was filled with joyful pride.

But “India” the land was not;
It was the Bahamas, and it was hot.

The Arakawa natives were very nice;
They gave the sailors food and spice.

Columbus sailed on to find some gold
To bring back home, as he’d been told.

He made the trip again and again,
Trading gold to bring to Spain.

The first American? No, not quite.
But Columbus was brave, and he was bright.

Happy Columbus Day! From your friends at GreensKeeper.Org
