A golf course maintenance system and method which comprises the input of a golf course and its shape, size and parameters into a computer-like system. The course is segmented into teeing grounds, fairways, one or more rough areas, water hazards, bunkers, and putting greens. Each such component of the holes and course is calculated into square foot or square yards surface area. Each such component is then calculated for maintenance purposes based upon cost components for maintenances, namely, cost and quantity of labor and Consumables such as fuel, energy, water, chemicals, fertilizers. The Course Officials can input into a CPU connected to a display screen the approximate configuration, length, width, and location of teeing grounds, fairways, rough, water hazards, bunkers, and putting greens. Each of these Course Components is then associated with a set of Processes to maintain them and each Process is associated with cost factors, e.g., labor, consumables resources such as fuel and water, etc. The Course Officials can then consider the modification of the Course Components of the hole(s) and the course while the CPU calculates and displays the cost and consumed resource savings, if any, by a change in the boundary of the Course Components. Also, the modification(s) to be considered are expected to take into account the frequency that players' shots land or lie in various locations of the Course Components as a set of players are tracked on the actual golf course and those tracked movements are provided to the CPU and/or the Course Officials or other User of the system to facilitate the modification of the Course Components.
