| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses golf course construction, suggesting that "the most artistic golf courses are those upon which the least attempt has been made to modify the natural topography of satisfactory sites." Describes the potential role of the golf course architect, explaining that "the course architect should be the representative of the club and should not be financially interested in the construction work. His advice can be of far more value then." Focuses on possible construction requirements and methods, highlighting land clearing; equipment; ditching; and timekeeping. Concludes that "to lessen maintenance cost and to eliminate the necessity of reconstruction work...proper attention to construction work is most desirable." |
