Abstract/Contents:States that "budgets certainly dictate the number of new courses to be built and older ones to be remodelled." Adds that many of these "courses will be shorter than the standard 18-hole courses," and that "golf course architects are requiring accurate club selection and shot placement by the strategic location of multiple tees, hazards, and smaller greens." Explains that "easy maintenance is a prime consideration" in golf course design and remodelling. Details The American Society of Golf Course Architects' desire to preserve urban areas' green belts.
