Welcome, Jim.  

This site keeps getting better and better with the diverse representation of styles and talents.   Now all we need is a weekly "round table of architects" thread.

If it's monthly, you can count me in.

Welcome, Jim.  Must be snow on the ground in Colorado or you'd be out on the links instead of killing time in here?

Welcome, Mr. Engh! I'm a big fan. My cousins live about 10 minutes from Lakota Canyon Ranch.

Between you and Kelly Blake Moran, this is an auspicious week for the discussion board. I look forward to your commentary.

For those who haven't read it, Jim's interview covers some of his philosophies.

His global life experiences, if shared, will be invaluable insights.

May be snow on the ground but not enought to pull out the boards yet for some steep and deep?

Hello fellas.

Thanks for the welcome to the site. I hope to add to some of the discussions and learn a little in the process. After all keeping an open mind and exposing oneself to new ideas and concepts is the spice of life.

Happy and safe Holidays!

Jim,

Welcome...great to see you here.  

I'm sure you know that a thick skin will serve you well in the GCA universe.  Besides our general cantankerously critical discussion, we're really a pretty good bunch.  ;D

Serial lurker, now member!  I hope all is well with you.  I played golf with someone from Denver today.

Happy and safe holidays to you too.

My thoughts exactly.  I was there in July the new holes look rough and far from playable or even fully shaped.  I would like to know about the process being used to build those holes as opposed to some of your work in America with a more agressive schedule.

Hi Jim

Welcome from another Carne member.

Any updates on the project. Last time I was out there I caught a glimpse of a couple of the holes (beside the 18th and one near the 16th). It looks very exciting.

Jim....again, welcome aboard.

Just to start things off....do you consider yourself a theorist or an experimentalist...or both?

And what are your thoughts on Joe Hancock?
