With over 25 years experience in the golf trade, we know what it takes for a facility to achieve Five-Star status.

Our rating system is based on evaluating the items that we feel every premier operation should offer.  We score your operation based on a Five-Star basis.  Over the years,  we’ve supplied services and/or products to Augusta National Golf Club, Pebble Beach, the U.S. Open, the PGA Championship, the Ryder Cup, numerous PGA Tour stops, celebrity golf events and premier golf courses nationwide.    We understand what a Five-Star operation should look like.

In conjunction with the Pepsi-Cola Company, we originally developed an “Operations Excellence” program that featured “Secret Shopping”.  

The program provided guidelines and support materials to help clubs initiate Secret Shopping at their own course.

When we Shop Your Facility, we work with you to customize exactly what areas you want to target. Utilizing our step-by-step checklist we deliver several things

  •   Give a scoring grade to each individual aspect of the shop.
  •   Keep track on a minute by minute basis of how and when each action occurs.
  •   Include a narrative that provides our shopper’s personal insight
  •   Provide photographs

Combining these inputs with our experienced shoppers lets us create a report that gives you a very specific evaluation of what went on during the shop.   Give us a chance to evaluate your facility and show you how to keep or bring it up to Five-Star standards.
