Update 5/21/2010: We launch the deals portion on Tuesday and will have deals running at least through mid-June (hopefully we'll be placing more). We'll also have ads running on 620 KTAR for the next few weeks.
Deals portion of the site: www.deals.parstars.com
The news and reviews portion still has some buggy areas and some cosmetic issues, but it should be workable by Tuesday (some reviews aren't showing on the right course right now. We have about 50 reviews in the system right now, but only publishing around 15 for launch and will roll the rest out as we go along and add new ones the whole time. The forums and community there are live, so please sign up and talk some golf.
Main site: www.parstars.com
This has been a loooong time coming - I finally decided that I didn't want to get off the pot, so to speak in the French vernacular, so I threw some money and it and let's see what happens. My wife will be running this venture for the most part, and has a deep golf marketing background. And if this one takes off, we have Spas in the hopper.
Please mention to your golfing friends, and thanks to all of you who have sent encouraging PMs over the years.

As some of you know, we are working (sloooowly) on a golf website. I'm at a position where I need to start generating some reviews of courses and I need help.
I'd like to know if anyone is interested in making a bit of money when you go golfing, that can help offset your fees a little.
We’ll need you to be able to write a good description of your experience and score it across a broad set of areas like how challenging you find it, the value of the course, the amenities, etc.
Depending upon your writing skills and depth of the review you submit, you can make $10 per course you review. It helps you save a bit of money, and our site generate some content. We’ll provide an easy to follow review checklist and guide to help make it easy for you to send us what we need to publish your input on the courses you are playing. Each course will only need to be reviewed once.
Please send any writing samples, your golfing experience level and any questions to us. You can PM me any questions or info.
Also, we are not looking for reviews ONLY in Arizona, but around the country.
