Welcome to the February/March 2022 edition of the Arizona Golf Insider - the official magazine of the Arizona Golf Association. In our fresh landscape layout, we feature The METFUND National, an epic 24 hours with Medal of Honor recipients set for April 10-11, 2022, at Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale.
We take an in-depth look at the factors driving the current grass seed shortage, while examining what lies ahead and what seed-shorthanded superintendents can do right now. Desert Forest Golf Club in Carefree has two caddies earning the prestigious Chick Evans Scholarship in each of the past two years. The scholarships are valued at $120,000! America’s Golfing Couple looks ahead to summer golf trips in Oregon and Michigan. And the AGA’s Managing Director of USGA Services details how the results of USGA Course Rating affect a player’s Handicap Index in the World Handicap System.
We hope you enjoy the magazine as much as we enjoy producing it! For any questions please contact azgolfinsider@azgolf.org.
