| Abstract/Contents: | Discusses potential benefits to developing a golf course master plan, highlighting the development of master plans at Bridger Creek Golf Course in Bozeman, Montana, and Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina. States that "while no two master plans - much like no two courses - are the same, [one] can expect the entire process to take as little as six weeks or extend out over many months." Suggests that when developing a master plan "a course architect should tour the course with the owner, general manager, superintendent and golf professional. During this step, the architect should solicit input from all parties on what they like about each hole and how they believe it can be improved." Mentions the "Golf Course Items Expected Lifecycle" developed by the American Society of Golf Course Architects (ASGCA), stating that "though course components become obsolete at varying rates depending on location, quality of materials, original installation and past maintenance practices, the chart...offers course officials a general guideline for tracking the life expectency of various course components." |
