Minneapolis, MN: Shepherd’s Crook Golf Course in Zion, IL is the first Chicagoland course to sign with Quick.golf, and will implement the pay-by-hole app when its’ season opens in the spring.
“We think Quick.golf is a great alternative way to play for local golfers who frequently complain about not having time to play as much as they’d like,” says Allen Parkes, PGA Manager of Golf Operations. The Zion Park District is not shy about trying new ideas that can increase revenue, and we think Quick.golf can add fun for golfers while providing us some incremental topline cash. We’ve looked at ways to alter the typical golfer dynamic of only playing 18-hole or 9-hole rounds of golf, and the Quick.golf web app makes it easy for us to offer a pay-by-hole alternative when we open in the spring. We think this is a wave of the future, and we want to be at the front of that wave.”
“Shepherd’s Crook and the Zion Park District have smart people looking for ways to grow the game as well as their facilities’ revenues, and we welcome them to the Quick.golf network,” says Quick.golf co-founder Harvey Silverman. “The number one complaint of golfers is they don’t have time to play as much golf as they’d like. We want golfers to play when they can, as much as they can, even if it is not 18 or even 9 holes. The Quick.golf web app tells golfers when Quick.golf is available at local courses, like Open Table does for restaurants, and all they have to do is show up and play a few holes. They are charged only for the holes they play, all done through the web app just like Uber or Lyft. It is very cool and convenient. It is fun for golfers, and profitable for golf facilities.” For more about why Quick.golf is a great idea for golf courses, go to www.quick.golf/joinus.
