Revenue and EBITDA figures are based on property operating records. Value unlocked applies a 9x transaction multiple to the increase in annual EBITDA and is an illustrative measure, not an appraisal, offer or guarantee of value. Brookstone improved from a $110,428.21 EBITDA loss in 2020 to $978,856.12 of Adjusted EBITDA in 2025, a $1,089,284.33 increase. Averages are calculated across the three properties shown, using each property's respective baseline and 2025 results. Property results reflect their individual circumstances and are not guarantees of future performance.

ONE PARTNER. TWO WAYS TO CREATE VALUE.

Protect the course.Grow the business.Strengthen the asset.

Management

Curated management, built around the owner’s vision.

We listen before we prescribe. The operating direction is tailored to your goals, priorities, desired golfer experience and level of owner involvement, then measured against the outcomes that matter to you.

  • A tailored operating plan, never a one-size-fits-all template
  • Owner-defined goals, priorities and decision rights
  • Full-service execution with transparent accountability

Capital

Aligned capital for improvements that change the trajectory.

We acquire and invest in golf courses where targeted capital improvements can elevate the golfer experience, strengthen the underlying asset and unlock long-term value.

  • Full-course acquisitions
  • Minority investments alongside existing owners
  • Targeted capital improvement partnerships

THE MOMENTUM STANDARDOWNER-ALIGNED BY DESIGN

FOUR COMMITMENTS. NO EXCEPTIONS.

The standards we hold our own courses to.

Owner judgment. Institutional discipline.
01

Long-Term Growth and Asset Protection

We pursue sustainable revenue and EBITDA growth while protecting the course, infrastructure, reputation, and long-term value of the asset. We never sacrifice tomorrow’s performance to manufacture short-term results.

02

Complete Transparency and Alignment

Ownership receives clear reporting, honest projections, and full visibility into performance. We eliminate self-dealing, hidden incentives, undisclosed vendor interests, and other conflicts that could place the manager’s interests ahead of the property.

03

Operational Excellence and Accountability

Every department operates with clear standards, measurable goals, disciplined financial controls, and defined ownership of results. We turn strategy into consistent execution and hold ourselves accountable for real performance, not optimistic pro formas.

04

Purposeful Innovation

We continually evaluate new technology, amenities, operating systems, and revenue opportunities that can improve the golf experience and financial performance. Every innovation is selected for the specific property and supported by a practical plan for execution and return on investment.

THE OWNER DIFFERENCE

The right management plan starts with your definition of success, not ours. We listen first, and then bring the right combination of know-how, drive and strategic execution to create forward momentum.

WHAT MOMENTUM DOES

Proven across every department, project and starting condition.

Complete management transparency

Your course should never be someone else’s hidden revenue stream.

Open-book reporting

Owners see the financial, operating, membership, marketing and capital information behind every recommendation.

No manager-benefiting incentives

Rebates, commissions, barter arrangements and purchasing incentives are disclosed. Momentum does not quietly profit from vendor selection.

No self-dealing

Momentum holds no ownership interest in the golf companies, platforms or service providers recommended to the courses we manage.

Owner-controlled data

The course retains its customer information, operating history, accounts, creative assets and institutional knowledge.

INNOVATION WITH AN OPERATING PURPOSE

Forward-thinking where it creates real value.

We pair owner judgment with modern intelligence and invest in ideas that make the course more useful, more compelling and more valuable over time.

AI-Assisted Intelligence

Better decisions from agronomy and operating data.

Momentum uses AI to support agronomic planning, identify operating patterns and turn course data into clearer decisions. Technology informs the work while experienced operators remain accountable for every call.
