March 2012 rounds were up 36.5% and days open were up 32.8% compared to March 2011. Again this month, each reporting group showed increases in rounds played which was supported by the significant increase in days open versus last year. This is the fifth month in a row with an increase in rounds played across all facility types. YTD 2012 rounds played are up 27.9% and YTD days open are up 29.6%. For YTD figures, the increase in days open may explain a portion of the rounds played increases.

Nationally, this was the warmest March on record and many other records were set on various levels. On the state level, 25 states had their warmest March on record and 15 states had much above normal temperatures. Only the state of Washington had below normal March temperatures.
