| Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "golf course construction is...a science, and driving eighteen stakes into the ground to indicate the spots for as many teeing grounds and eighteen more stakes to denote where putting greens shall be developed no longer suffices in links architecture. The days of haphazard construction are nearly done, because the clubs are spending large sums of money on their links and they have learned from experience that not to do the thing correctly in the first place, means the expenditure of further large sums to undo what has been done and start afresh." Describes the potential costs associated with golf course construction. |
