STAY UP TO DATE WITH

THE PULSE OF GOLF

From the Desk of Justin J. Arlt, PGA
Market General Manger - SIOUX FALLS GOLF

Can you believe that peak golf season is already here? We are excited about summer and serving
you again in 2021. It's sure to be another wonderful season at SF GOLF and we appreciate each of
you being a part of what we offer.

Speaking of what we offer, I thought I should highlight some things that you might not know,
especially after the pandemic year of 2020 and all the changes that stemmed from it. DID YOU
KNOW..

FOOD & BEVERAGE

Did you know that both Clubhouses have a full-service menu to enjoy before and after your round
of golf to enjoy with your favorite beverages? You can’t beat the convenience & prices. Some of my
favorites include the flatbread Pepperoni Pizza and regular 16” crust Supreme Pizza. We also offer
traditional South Dakota Chislic that I feel is as good as the local competition. If you love to eat
like my waistline shows, we have your taste buds covered.

GOLF SHOPS

Did you know that there is NO BETTER place to buy your golf balls than at the course? It’s certainly
the most convenient and in addition our prices are as good or better than the competition. Any
dozen balls you purchase on any brand gets you 10% off all day every day. If you hit it like me, you
can never have enough balls in the bag.

GOLF COURSES

Did you know that Prairie Green was once again rated as the 3rd best public course in the state
and geographically it’s the highest-ranking East River course in South Dakota? The crazy & fun
part about this is that most of our patrons prefer and love Elmwood. All three courses we have
offer something uniquely different. Your Agronomy professionals will do all they can to provide
great conditioned courses for your enjoyment in 2021 as usual.

Hopefully I shed some light on things you may not have known. We welcome you to not only play
golf with us this summer, but dine when hungry. We look forward to the opportunity to feed you.
The golf shop staff is here to help you with any golfer related purchases and needs you might have
for what is sure to be a fun summer of golf, friendship, and fun at YOUR COURSES!

Thanks for your patronage and remember to keep enjoying the game we love!

We. Are. Golf.

BE SURE TO My name is Paul Drazba and I am the Assistant Golf
SAY "HI" WHEN Professional at Prairie Green Golf Course. I was
YOU SEE PAUL
OUT & ABOUT! born in Chicago, Illinois and lived in Tennessee for
seven years. I have called Sioux Falls home for just
over a year. When I'm not working at the golf course
I like to be playing on the golf course or spending

time with my Weimaraner, Jasper. I admire what
Bryson DeChambeau is doing for the game of golf
and try to mold my game after his. In fact I have a
Master's degree in Physics. On Sundays in the fall

you can find me watching "Da Bears". I enjoy
helping our staff as well as our patrons. If there is
anything I can do to help you, please let me know!

HEAR. BETTER. NOW.

Dealing with hearing loss is a challenge,
but getting hearing aids can be, too.

We are passionate about helping
others over the hurdles.

You’ve struggled long enough.
