Running the Shop

Since this has been the worst Spring in Ohio's history weatherwise, Alex and I have not been able to get experience working on the course and have not been able to golf much. Instead, We've been helping out in the pro shop with the pros and the workers in the pro shop. We've done everything from inventory, to cleaning, to order forms and lots in between. Even through all of these menial tasks, we've semi-learned how to run a business. We have learned to deal with companies and people sending in order forms. We have learned the golf business inside and out. Alex and I are now much more knowledgable about clubs and balls, and the more technical aspects of the game. We also helped read through applications for a golf scholarship that one of the pros has set up. Going into this project alex and I just thought all the pro did was teach lessons and go golfing at his leisure, but instead he has to take care of every one of the tiniest details dealing with the club, pro shop, and course.
