The Pellucid Perspective - September 2024 - 11
Blue Fox Run got its fair share of of the market improvement.
These two golf course closures are both examples of why local
market data is important. One of Brad Klein's observations was
that Blue Fox Run's location made it less accessible to the bulk of
Hartford's population base. There are also multiple other golf options
available. In his well educated opinion; there are some things
a new owner might be able to do that would make it more attractive
- hopefully, whoever " wins " the auction bid later this month
will have the resources to put some of those options in place.
Primm Valley, on the other hand, has a location that presents
a huge challenge. Even the explosive growth in southwestern Nevada
couldn't save it. In the end we have Blue Fox Run in a market
with depth but the ship isn't seaworthy. Primm Vally is seaworthy
but there is no market depth. I don't know if Mark Twain could
find the humor in either situation; but he would have understood
the need to determine how deep the water needs to be. " You can't
depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus. " Mark
Twain, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, 1899. n
