What about all the jobs the industry brings to such a rural area? What about the massive amount of taxes these places pay that help fund local schools? What about the promotion of youth sports and recreation? Golf courses aren't a scar on natural beauty, they're an integral part of the community.

Buddy, the average golf course employs 30 people. Taxes are cool, sure but I doubt it's more than a drop in the bucket in most places. I'd hardly call walking around a gently graded course for a few hours "recreation" when there are trails with anywhere from hundreds to thousands of vertical feet surrounding the area. Golf courses are a waste of resources and the land would be better off being turned into a multi-purpose park rather than an upperclass day drinking club
