In season, how many grounds crew workers work per day?

[/ QUOTE ]

35 on M/W/F...around 25 Tues and Thurs

And how much does this differ between a good private course and a decent daily fee course?

[/ QUOTE ]

As few as 5 may be on the crew at a crappy 9 holer. I know the TPC course here has 60 on the crew leading up to the senior PGA tour event. The course I worked at w/ 36 was at a very nice city owned 27 hole course.

Do you move the pins everyday? (Who decides pin placement?)

[/ QUOTE ]

Yep, maybe not in april, and beyond mid sept on really crappy days when hardly anyone will play.

Whoever cuts the cups decides the pin positions unless there is a big event, in which case the superintendent cut the cups where the 'Director of golf' told him to put them.

How many groundhogs live on your course and have you ever tried to dynamite them?

[/ QUOTE ]

There was one that used to try and burrow thru the wall of a bunker, not sure what happened to him.

How many un-fixed ballmarks are there per day and do you fix them (all)?

[/ QUOTE ]

I'd say 5-15 (from a full shot not hardly noticeable ones) per green. Whoever mowed the green was supposed to fix them, with a really simple device that does not require bending over at all.
