The most business-friendly
golf courses in Virginia
The best golfers at Virginia Business
make their picks
Okay,
so now that you know how to do business on the golf course,
where do you do it? To help you, the Richmond office of
Virginia Business' advertising department has compiled
a list of public and semi-private golf courses in the
Old Dominion.
First, you should know who these people are. All three
- Hunter Bendall, Stu Hopper and William Power - are avid
golfers who routinely score in the 70s. Sure! The best
of the lot is William, who earned a scholarship to the
University of Mississippi, played in four National Amateur
Championships and is a former professional. Hunter was
a walk-on on the Hampden-Sydney golf team back in the
early '70s who now sports a 9 handicap with four holes-in-one
to his credit. Nowyatalkin! Stu carries a 15 handicap
and plays most of his golf in business outings. Stu just
recently switched over to the "Natural Grip."
They made their picks this way. They obtained a list of
nearly 200 Virginia golf courses from Washington Golf
Monthly magazine and then pared them down. Eliminated
were nine-hole courses, ones that don't accept credit
cards and courses with a slope of less than 118 (slope
measures the playing difficulty of a course).
