| Abstract/Contents: | Presents a historical description of the job of golf course architects. States that "the...golf course architect devotes many days to exhaustive study of conditions; the ground must be surveyed and charted, and greens and hazards are modeled in miniature before work is begun." Explains that "besides having a profound knowledge of the strokes of golf and the groups of strokes which should be demanded by a modern course, the architect must be something of an engineer. Greens cannot be placed always in spots which look attractive, for possibly these spots would not produce good turf." |
