DALLAS (Jan. 31, 2018) –Arcis Golf, the Dallas-based golf ownership and management company, has been named to the National Golf Foundation’s inaugural list of the “Top 100 Businesses in Golf,” which identifies the most successful, influential and innovative businesses, organizations, and associations in the golf industry.
With more than 60 private, resort and daily fee clubs nationwide in its portfolio, Arcis Golf has more than doubled its owner-operator management roster in the past five years, the NGF noted.
