Kahrhoff Joins Elite Company

Named 2012 PGA of America Private Merchandiser of the Year

George Kahrhoff, PGA head professional at The Country Club at Castle Pines in Castle Rock, Colo., didn’t start out as the picture of decorum at the golf course. As a teenager, while working in the bag room at Riverside Country Club in Grand Island, Neb., he attempted to jump over a bunker and was promptly fired by PGA Head Professional Jack Hoskins. “It was typical crazy kid stuff, and I always tell my assistants, ‘There’s nothing you can do that I won’t know because I was once there myself,’” quipped Kahrhoff, the 2012PGA Merchandiser of the Year for private facilities. “Most importantly, this is where I first learned about service, how important it is to carry a member’s bags to the car and keep the bag room clean.”
