The gripe with golf usually lies within the incredibly high amounts of water needed to keep the courses green.

That makes sense. Places like Arizona make my jaw drop.

A lot of the courses in Arizona aren't using potable water; they're using treated waste water.

The locals know golf isn't the problem in Arizona. It's 'use it or lose it' water rights for agriculture, and selling land/water to foreign powers (Saudi alfalfa)

Then there shouldn't be any opposition to courses in places like the PNW. Right?
