RICHARDSON, TX– Tom Egelhoff , superintendent at the Jack Nicklaus Signature Sunrise and Sunset Courses at the Club at Las Campanas in Santa Fe, NM, has discovered that implementing ezLocator, a unique green and pin management system, helps him manage the placement of pins more efficiently.
“It’s definitely a worthwhile tool and has certainly made my job and the cup cutter’s job much easier at the Club at Las Campanas by allowing us to rotate the holes in a systematic manner.” Egelhoff said. “In addition, we have decreased the personnel time spent on pin placements by about 40 per cent and have reallocated that to other projects.”
“Prior to getting ezLocator, Egelhoff revealed, we would hear numerous complaints from members about the pins always being in the same locations. The pin placements were left to the discretion of the cup cutter and over time the pins weren’t getting spread around, staying in about the same five placement areas. ezLocator sure took care of that issue!”
ezLocator’s historical reporting provides an insight into pin placements as well as traffic patterns. “What intrigued us about using ezLocator was that you can go in and see exactly where the pin has been placed over time. When the pro shop wants pin placements for special events like the member-guest, we can block off that area weeks prior if necessary.”
ezLocator’s multi-user capability even allows the pro shop to login and print the pin placements first thing in the morning and provide members a professional-looking pin sheet with just a single click. This has left a positive impression with our membership and their guests. Members can even download the ezLocator ePinSheet app to get the pin placements on their smart phones.
