One simple Earth Day suggestion

Tee_Photos_096_labledbag.jpgThere are so many ways are out there to improve the planet that currently supports our bad habits, and starting with golf course management is one way a sportsman (and sportswoman) can be conscious about how his or her actions affect others.
This isn't just about replacing divots. It starts at the tee box.
We've been using the corn-manufactored tees made by EcoGolf, an Indiana-based company that sells its product to thousands of golf courses around the country. The company notes on its website that there are more than 2 billion golf tees used in the U.S. each year. By mixing in a corn tee, you're not just saving millions of trees that are cut down to produce the wood tees, but these are biodegradable, reduce the litter around the tee box and are in many ways stronger and last longer than the traditional wood tees.
Save the environment. It's what you play on.
