Shawn Cox, PGA Dir. of Golf, Joins the Club + Resort Talks Podcast to Discuss Sharon Heights G&CC
Shawn Cox, PGA Director of Golf at Sharon Heights Golf & Country Club joined Rob Thomas on the Club + Resort Talks podcast to discuss the recent golf course renovation, as well as an upcoming addition to the club.
The club reopened with a refreshed and enhanced golf experience after a $23 million renovation by Todd Eckenrode and Origins Golf Design. Approved by the club in 2019, this comprehensive redesign spanned all 18 holes and was crafted to create a more engaging layout, elevate aesthetics, and support the club’s sustainability goals.
The club also secured the green light for a 15,000-sq.-ft., state-of-the-art facility which will serve as a maintenance and operations center. It is seen as a landmark in sustainable renovation and environmental stewardship.
Also in the news ... After more than a century of serving its members and the Wheeling, W.Va., community, the Wheeling Country Club has announced plans to close on Dec. 31. The decision comes after years of significant challenges, as shared in a letter sent to members. The club has pledged to continue providing exceptional service and experiences for all guests and events until its final day of operation. Meanwhile, discussions are underway to explore future uses for the property. Collaborations with Oglebay and other local stakeholders are being considered as part of this process.
Heritage Golf Group, an owner and operator of private country clubs and high-end daily-fee courses across the U.S., acquired its 39th club, Ptarmigan Country Club in Fort Collins, Colo. The Flack family, who owned the club for more than 20 years, selected Heritage as the purchaser. This acquisition marks Heritage’s fourth property in the Greater Denver area, further strengthening its presence in Colorado. The other three properties in the area are award-winning daily fee courses: The Golf Club at Bear Dance, Plum Creek Golf Club, and Colorado National Golf Club.
Coeur d’Alene Casino Resort Hotel has unveiled a state-of-the-art indoor golf and entertainment venue, Circling Raven Golf Suites, where golfers and non-golfers can immerse themselves in interactive fun, choosing from a variety of games. With access to more than 80 iconic courses like The Old Course at St. Andrews and Pebble Beach, the simulators bring every slope, tree, and green to life with breathtaking detail. Between games, guests can relax in style with plush lounge seating, HDTVs, and music, while savoring food and drinks delivered from select casino eateries.

    No offense but couldn’t you take the device out of the package to show us how it works? I like to know how simple or hard it is to track the distance of your shots, how many steps you took on the course, and how to record your scores. Your demonstration is as helpful if you just had an audio podcast. You didn’t really show us the product. You told us what the product website stated. I guess you didn’t want to fully unbox it so you can return it for a refund.

    I like your enthusiasm for the Bushnell Phantom 3 Slope. I recently bought one and am totally frustrated with it. I bought it because my original Phantom unit, which I think I've had for 3 years, has this year decided to reboot itself in the middle of a round of golf. So, I bought the Phantom 3. The "manual" from the box does nothing more than identify what each symbol on the screen means. I've called Bushnell several times and get onky recordings saying they're very busy with other calls but they can call me back. However, the recording does not enable you to leave your phone number. So, I'd like to learn how to use the piece. When I'm on the golf course and try to use it, I invariably push a feature on the screen to, for example, advance the hole I'm on. Trying to scroll to the appropriate number is not easy, especially when wearing a golf glove. Then to find out where the hazards are for the hole is impossible. I use to be able to accomplish this more quickly and efficiently by pushing the Upper or Lower buttons on the keft side of my original Phantom unit. Now I become so frustrated on the course that I say "The hell with it. This thing is a piece of junk." So, are you able to help me? Thank you for your consideration.

    Here’s an idea for ya …. Why not create a hat that has a magnetic strip on the peak and around the brim, then take sunglasses and embed magnets on arms and bottoms of the frames. ( or vice-versa ) When paired together you have a “system” that works together so you never have your glasses flip off of your head in your swing, or while bending over or other physical activities. Also this would drastically reduce the amount of spring tension needed to keep glasses a fixed on your hat in the forward or backward position. Just one of my many ideas for golf inventions 😆 I also have a doozie of an idea to revolutionize push carts.

  • @CamMacMastermusic

    Pace of play could be addressed at least at clubs that require you to take a cart by putting an iPad, AKA a “virtual caddy “ .. With the current gps systems and geo fence technologies that we have in this day and age there’s no reason that when you pull up to your ball an on screen caddy can suggest the best way to approach your next shot. Meanwhile giving you friendly reminders of where you SHOULD be on the course at the present time.
