The city is offering a little practice on the house to Gainesville's experienced golfers.
Ironwood Golf Course is giving away a free pail of golf balls to people who participate in a new online survey, according to a release.
Amid controversy and disagreement between city commissioners, the city of Gainesville recently committed at least $1 million to improving the course.
The survey requires knowledge of the course and asks questions about how often participants golf, quality of the course and includes open-ended questions inviting criticism.
"This survey has been designed by the National Golf Foundation to help us identify areas that could use improvement," said Bob Woods, a Gainesville city spokesman.
Once the survey is completed, participants will receive a coupon redeemable through Dec. 31 at Ironwood Golf Course located at
2100 NE 39th Ave.
Golfers are encouraged to bring their own clubs, but the course can provide drivers, according to Steve Phillips, director of Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs.
