Arizona Golf Industry Day 1

Our group was excited to launch from campus at 4am and make our journey to Arizona.  It was a long travel day with busses, planes, vans, and ubers, but we made it!

The naps were on and off for the day.

We had great group seats for our direct flight to Phoenix.

Upon our arrival to Phoenix, we collected our rental cars and made our way to our Air BNB in the Scottsdale area.  It was a beautiful day and the sights in the mountains and valleys were beautiful.


View from our front deck at the Air BNB.



View from the back of the house- right on a golf course (how appropriate!).


At night, we broke out our clubs to hit some balls at a local driving range.  The sky was beautiful and it was great to be outside seeing balls fly around (even if they weren't straight).


Beautiful sky and awesome time at the driving range.




The night finished with some of the students grilling out burgers.  The highlight was Mr. Ladd walked into a glass sliding door!

Day 2 we visit Troon Golf Management which oversees 600+ courses in the U.S. and globally.  In the afternoon, we head to Grayhawk Golf Club (one of the most popular courses in the area) to meet with the Head Golf Pro and learn about their business!
