Is AI Already Working at Your Golf Club? (You Might Be Surprised)


Do you use AI?


This week, I'm doing something alittle different. I'm looking for YOUR input.

I've been noticing something interesting happening across golf clubs everywhere – and I'm curious if you've noticed it too.

Many of us are already using forms of artificial intelligence without even realizing it. The technology that once seemed like science fiction is quietly becoming part of our daily operations.

But here's what I'm really curious about: How is AI currently showing up at your club?

Maybe it's in your booking system, your member communications, or even your swing analysis tools. Perhaps you're seeing it in unexpected places, or maybe you're wondering if you're missing out on opportunities entirely.

I'm putting together something special – a comprehensive guide specifically for golf club industry professionals who want to understand AI without getting lost in technical jargon. Think of it as "AI for Golf Pros" – practical, relevant, and focused on what actually matters for our you - the practitioner.

But before I share what I've learned working in AI, I want to hear from you:

  • Are you currently using any AI tools at your club?
  • What's your biggest question about AI in the golf industry?
  • Where do you think AI could help your operation most?
  • What's one task at your club that you wish could handle itself?

You might be surprised by how AI could help with exactly that.

Here's what I need: Simply reply to this email with your thoughts – even if it's just "I have no idea what AI tools we're using!" Your input will help me create content that addresses the real questions golf professionals are asking.

Coming soon:

  • A detailed newsletter breaking down AI series for golf pros
  • A step-by-step video showing you how to create your own AI assistant (no tech background required!)
  • Real examples of clubs already using AI successfully (with your permission)

This isn't about replacing the personal touch that makes golf special – it's about enhancing what you already do best.

Hit reply and let me know:

We'll see you next week.

Now, let's get out there and Grow Golf.
