Be the person everybody in town has met.

Somebody in your city is going to be the one who introduced half the local owners to each other. It may as well be you. You pick the courses and play the rounds. We make the phone calls, book the tee times, take the money and draw the pairings.

The deal

You bring the people. We do the phone calls.

Every casual golf group I've been part of died the same way: one person got tired of chasing tee times. That's the job we take off you.

How it runs

Four steps. Three of them are ours.

    Territories

    Which town is yours?

    Utah's first two are running. Most of the rest are opening with someone local already lined up to run them — search yours and get on its list. Anything marked unclaimed has nobody on it yet, and the applications that come with a real list of courses attached are the ones I call back first.

    Don't see your city? — markets get opened where the demand is.

    Who this suits

    You probably already do half of this.

    You already golf most weeks

    You're playing anyway — with the same two people, or alone. This turns rounds you were already paying for into the reason forty local owners know your name.

    Your business runs on relationships

    Insurance, lending, real estate, contracting, wealth management, recruiting. If a warm introduction is worth real money to you, a market is worth more than the fee.

    You're in a mastermind and between events

    The big events are three months apart. This is the thing you run in your own backyard for the eleven weeks in between, with the same kind of people.

    You don't want the admin

    Nobody wants to spend Tuesday night calling pro shops about eight consecutive tee times. That's exactly why most local golf groups die in their second season.

    FAQ

    Things people ask me.

    What does it cost to run a market?

    Territories are by application right now rather than a published fee — the founding markets are being set up one at a time, and the terms are part of that conversation. Tell us the market you want and we'll come back with the numbers in writing.

    What exactly do I get — where does my market start and stop?

    Your territory is named after the city, but it's defined by the counties listed in the table above. Counties are the boundary that goes in the agreement, for a boring but important reason: county lines are public, everyone knows which one they live in, and they don't move. No two territories share a county, so there's never a question about whose player somebody is.

    Where you actually play is a separate thing — that's the course rota, five or six courses inside a comfortable drive. A big county can hold more than one rota; a small market is one rota and that's the whole territory.

    How big is a market? Can I have the whole metro?

    A division is capped on purpose. The reason this works is that you meet everybody over a season — sixteen rounds, a fresh foursome each time. Make the pool much bigger than that and you've got a directory instead of a network.

    So a market bigger than one tee sheet doesn't get watered down, it runs as several divisions under the same champion. That's already how Utah works: one territory on the Wasatch Front, playing as North and South on different nights. If your market is one of the bigger ones, you'd start with one division and add the next when the first one fills.

    Am I on the hook for green fees?

    No. Players pay online in advance and the league settles with the course. You should never be fronting money or chasing anyone across a parking lot.

    What if I can't fill a tee sheet?

    A market opens at twenty committed players, so nothing gets booked into an empty room. Below that we keep building the list with you rather than scheduling rounds nobody comes to.

    Are these private clubs?

    No — the league plays public courses. That's the entire point: the networking of a club, without a waiting list or an initiation fee.

    Can more than one person run a market?

    Up to three per metro. Big markets are too much ground for one person, and a market with three motivated champions fills its tee sheet a lot faster than one with a single busy one.
