    Apparently the whole years budget was spent on renovations for a hotel owned by the town. They signed an oil and gas lease with over a million signing bonus that never went through so no budget to open. think it's safe to say anything I could do would be bare bones, I just think the greens would be the really expensive part and probably the deal breaker. I've heard up to 50k for a single green if not salvageable.

    Nice! This course is I'm guessing 90 miles east of Colombus. If by some miracle it comes together I'll let you know!

    Yeah the obvious reaction is it's a bad idea because tons of courses are loosing money everywhere but if the land is free, and the water is free, and they still have all the mowers and carts, it might be worth it even if it's temporary.

    True but maybe it would still be worth it. A 20 year lease maybe, otherwise the land is probably worth over 2-3 million and not doable anyway for me

    It's owned by a town almost like a muni but part of an old resort. It's not actually for sale but I'm trying to find a way to lease it. Would be so sweet it's like 200+ acres, free water and some equipment already. I only have 150k saved between me and a friend, probably won't happen but if I get it I'll try. It was apparently busy and $42 to drive 18 5 years ago until it didn't open in 2010 because of the town budget. I'm just worried about the greens, if they can't be saved they might cost well over 100k to redo them, everything else is overgrown but fine.

    Thanks, I'm thinking about it, it would be a ton of work though. Everything else is there but would need a clubhouse renovation too. I guess the real question would be time. What do you think, one year of work and healing time might let you open year two?

    Not sure of the name but it's in Ohio that does freeze. Why high cost for bunkers?

    Found an overgrown course not played in 5 years. Greens are visible still but essentially the same as overgrown fairway, just raised. Anyone know how to bring a green back to life or what it would take to bring the whole course back? And how long? I want to try to do it but not sure of the cost for everything

    On the first hole of a course I played recently, the hole was cut on the downslope of a false front so steep the only way the ball would not roll off the front of the green was if it went in the hole. I hit 4 puts some that stopped short others that went past the hole, all rolled back off the green to the original putting position. A ball could not even be placed or marked hole-high without rolling off the green. What's the rule for something like this? Other than it just being a bad hole location? Thought something like this happened in a U.S. Open maybe 15 years ago.
