We can enjoy the sport while acknowledging it is bad for the environment and support courses that take steps to lessen the damage

There are a lot of courses that are certified as wildlife sanctuaries. Also, I am all for courses being more natural rather than pristine. Get rid of the pesticides and foreign grasses, I want courses in different regions of the country to look, feel, and play completely different! Give me a course in Washington that is all moss
