The second project is the “Manual for Preparing Golf Course Management Plans”. Forward planning and strategic thinking are important aspects of all greenkeeper’s and golf club committee’s work. This publication breaks management planning down into an easy step-by-step process, enabling a start from scratch building up to a detailed and well-structured plan. It also provides advice on sources of assistance and ways to communicate ideas within the Club or Local Authority.
Copies are available free of charge to all Golf Clubs and Local Authorities in Scotland. Ideally the manual should be used in conjunction with a free advisory visit from one of the Scottish Golf Course Wildlife Advisers. Please get in touch if you wish a copy or would like to discuss the possibility of a first, or follow up, advisory visit.
