The Michigan golf industry is well down the path of recovery and looks to tee off another strong season this year, reports Mibiz.com.

The site reports, “The industry’s recovery is especially being felt in Michigan, where the number of rounds played last year increased nearly 11 percent compared to 2011, according to data compiled by the PGA of America.
