Cart Girls Put On Notice: Golf Course Instituting Food Delivery By Drone
/CNN's Matt McFarland repots that King's Walk GC in Grand Forks, North Dakota will be selling food starting September 15th. The bad news? It could snow two weeks later.
Anyway, the folks behind it feel the order-by-phone, deliver-by-drone option could add a cool and fun factor that will keep golfers coming back.
Like many golf courses, an employee roams the area in a beverage cart. But on busy days, players might wait as long as an hour before having the chance to buy something. Yes, they can duck into the restaurant positioned midway through the 18 holes, but the course and its partners say that's a bit much to ask in today's age of instant gratification.
"Wherever you are, you should be able to get what you want within a few minutes," Yariv Bash, CEO of FlyTrex, the Israeil drone logistics startup operating the service, told CNNMoney. "Why wait?"
Looks pretty swell!
