Best Answer – Chosen by Voters Here is a comprehensive economic study that covers the impacts of golf on various natural resources: Following national initiatives to assess the economic role of the golf industry (Golf 20/20 and World Golf Foundation), Colorado’s golf industry funded a study in 2003 that also focused on the natural resource usage and environmental role of golf in the state. The primary objectives of the study were compare golf’s economic impact relative to the national industry and other Colorado sectors that compete for the same natural resource inputs. The Colorado Golf Association, Rocky Mountain Golf Course Superintendent’s Association, Colorado Women’s Golf Association, Colorado Chapter of the Club Manager’s Association of America, Colorado Section PGA, and the Colorado Chapter of the Golf Course Owner’s Association collaborated with Colorado State University to complete the economic resource analysis presented in this publication.

Its not the natural resources… its the unnatural ones.Fertilizers, pesticides and weed killers to keep the greens, fairways and Tee locations "pristine".Because of this, Golf is one of the WORST sports for the environment.

Most courses displace native habitat and vegetation and provide standardized, thirsty courses. Some at least attempt to integrate natural habitat into the mix, benefiting wildlife and providing a more interesting atmosphere for golfers. Some of these have even been certified as habitat, per a program run by Audubon International.Most courses not only use oodles of water but loads of fertilizer. Runoff can contaminate local waters if not applied properly. And nuisance wildlife may be trapped or killed. Golf courses overall are not environmentally friendly, but there are exceptions.
