Par is less important than shot values
Golf is a pedestrian event…even if you are in a cart
The site dictates everything…. the routing and feature placement and landscape treatments
Golf Course Architecture is not art [static], it is theater [dynamic]
Fun is more important than length
Creativity and shot-making should be rewarded
Golf should be emotionally engaging and mentally stimulating
What the golfer feels is more important than what the golfer sees
Less is often better
Excellent Golf can coexist with economic viability and environmental sustainability
Golf can benefit the entire community
Martin Design offers solutions to the issues facing Golf Course Architecture. We have written much about the golf industry and will gladly share our thoughts with you, your committee, or anyone about the challenges facing golf and golf course architecture.
