Give your players the pro experience.
| Think outside the box for those extra-special touches that get attention, such as this unexpected participant at the Irby Outdoor Adventure.
When you think golf outing, what comes to mind? Panic because you’re not a golfer? Concern for the folks in your group who might not be ready to hit the pro circuit just yet? How about Sheboygan, Wisconsin… or, more specifically, how about golf courses like Blackwolf Run, host of the 2012 US Women’s Open, or Whistling Straits, home to the 2015 PGA Championship?

Golf is more than just a game.
Many corporations and businesses may think eliminating golf from their program is an easy way to cut costs, when in reality it’s a fairly inexpensive way to accomplish multiple goals.
Whether your attendees are avid golfers or first timers, with the right approach it can be a successful way to encourage camaraderie and let people get to know one another outside the boardroom and office.
Staff members at most golf courses are experienced in creating customized golf outings that are fun for all levels of players. In planning your event you can solicit the avid golfers to be team captains and assist in making the other inexperienced teammates feel comfortable.
