Troon
North Golf Club to Launch New Caddie Service
to
Further Enhance Guest Experience
|
Scottsdale,
AZ – October 2016 / Newsmaker Alert / Troon
North Golf Club, the preeminent daily-fee club in Scottsdale, will
soon launch a new caddie service for guests. When playing Troon North’s
Pinnacle and Monument courses, guests will have the option of a Forecaddie
or a Single-Bag Caddie or choose to play without a caddie. The new caddie
service is part of a long term property improvement plan as Troon®,
the leader in golf course management, development, and marketing, recently
purchased Troon North Golf Club. Troon®
will continue to operate and manage the award-winning facility.
Troon
North’s caddie service will begin in mid-November and will further strengthen
an already impressive guest service experience. Guests can choose the following
caddie options:
-
Forecaddie
- Forecaddies will be positioned ahead of the group and will track shots
for each player in the group. Forecaddies will also offer advice on how
to play the course and help players select the proper target lines. When
appropriate, forecaddies will also care for the course, raking bunkers,
replacing divots when necessary, tending flagsticks, cleaning balls and
clubs, and help golfers manage the course.
-
Single-Bag
Caddie - A Single-Bag Caddie will work with a single golfer and will describe
the best play for each hole, assist with yardages, rake bunkers, replace
divots, help around the greens, tend the pin and perform any other duties
required.
“Since
the early 90s, Troon North has been a leader in guest service and providing
golfers with the ultimate desert golf experience,” said Dana Garmany, chairman
and chief executive officer, Troon. “The new caddie program will further
improve the Troon North experience, while also speeding up pace of play.
Moving forward, we will continue to enhance the amenities, guest services
and course conditions at this flagship Troon facility.”
Troon
North’s Pinnacle and Monument courses were recently ranked #25 and #58
respectively on GOLF Magazine’s prestigious ranking of the 2016/2017
“Top 100 Courses You Can Play in the United States.” In addition, GOLF
Magazine named Pinnacle the #1 golf course and Monument the #4 golf
course in Arizona in their ranking of “Best Courses You Can Play in Arizona.”
Troon North is no stranger to awards and accolades as both courses have
been recognized in numerous Top 100 and Best-in-State rankings by GOLF,
Golf Digest and Golfweek since the facility opened in 1990.
