The Problems With Golf
Among the primary concerns of environmentalists with regard to golf courses are: the use of non-native grasses in golf course construction, elimination or interruption of natural habitats, overuse of fertilizers, water and pesticides, overuse of gasoline in mowers and golf carts, the massive habitat upheaval inherent in constructing a golf course, and the interruption of natural waterways that may wreak havoc on coastlines.

Barnstable has gone all natural no chemicals, stinks when it’s freshly laid down and our fees have gone up some to pay for it, but like people many see the need for change and others are only concerned about the money.
