In 1990, Hoke was elected to the board of Buckhorn Springs Golf and Country Club and eventually served as its president for three terms. During this time he applied the concepts he teaches to the marketing and strategic challenges the club faced. This experience led to more than a two-decade-long research interest, which resulted in over 40 national and regional publications as well as frequent presentations to academics and practitioners, including all three local regions of the Florida CMAA and the statewide and regional meetings of the HFTP. Hoke has complemented his academic activities with real-world experience providing consulting services to a wide range of for-profit and not-for-profit organizations.
