Rounds decrease in November

Same-store rounds in the U.S. were down 3.8 percent in November 2007 vs. November 2006, the National Golf Foundation reports. This brings the year-to-date total to level with last year. In some regions (e.g., the Midwest) where there is very little rounds volume in the month of November, there were some large variances, but these have little effect on the year overall. Year-to-date, the best-performing region compared to last year has been the Northeast, and the South Central the worst.
