Two New GolfBoard Showcase Courses Added

Oregon’s Black Butte Ranch, located outside of Sisters, and Colorado’s Raccoon Creek in Littleton have recently attained ‘Showcase Course’ status by expanding their GolfBoard fleets to 12 boards each.

As is often the case with GolfBoards, once the word got out about their availability at these courses, demand quickly started exceeding supply.

At Black Butte Ranch, Jeff Fought, Director of Golf, says the GolfBoards offer the best of both worlds for golfers. From the Black Butte Golf Blog: "The ease of traveling around the golf course is very much like riding in a golf cart. But because you don’t have to share a GolfBoard, golfers move through the course at a quicker pace, usually without ever noticing the faster pace. Most of all, though, riding a GolfBoard is a lot of fun. And that is what will keep golfers coming back to ride the GolfBoards.” Read the entire blog post HERE.  Call Black Butte Ranch at 866-901-2961 to arrange for your GolfBoarding tee times, or VISIT them on the web.

Colorado’s Raccoon Creek in Littleton is another great facility to add a dozen GolfBoards to their fleet after a successful trial program this year. The club found the GolfBoards were booked two weeks out and realized they needed more to satisfy the demand.

"They've been drawing a different, younger clientele that maybe hadn't come to Raccoon Creek before," said Rob Strong, an Assistant Pro at the course. "They speed up play, because players can go straight to their own ball instead of waiting for others in a golf cart."

GolfBoarding In New York: New Wave Of Golf Comes To Links At Union Vale

Brett Cyrgalis of the New York Post recently had his eyes opened about the fun and safety of GolfBoarding by daily GolfBoard-user John Haines. Haines, 77, was once a member of an old-school private club in upstate New York. When they scoffed at getting some GolfBoards and had a season of cart-path only, he quit and joined as a weekday member at The Links at Union Vale.

Ask For GolfBoard At Your Favorite Club

David Barnett and Pat Perry of Augusta, Georgia, have been lifelong friends who love golf. As a matter of fact, they love golf so much they created Tour Junkies, a weekly podcast report about what is going on with the tour so you can 'Gain Your Edge' and improve your performance in PGA Daily Fantasy Sports.

David recently paid a visit to Bill Jeffrey, GolfBoard Sales Representative for the Augusta area, and filed this video report about how much fun the GolfBoard is. 'Call your favorite golf course and ask if they have the GolfBoard,' David urges. 'If they say no ask them, why not?'  Excellent question, David.
