I was looking at GD and they said that Jack make just under $29M last year and that much of that was from his design business. Was there that much work to generate that much income?

They pay MSRP in China...

Much may not equal more than 50% - which still seems like a lot, unless they routed a ton of courses last year

I'm guessing...
His design business also would include consultation to all his existing courses - design and agronomic

Didn't they sell the business, or 1/2 the business for a big sum?

Does his company handle course building anymore? I recall that his course building unit Paragon (?) bankrupted his public company (Golden Bear) in the late 90s.

Yes, Howard Milstein bought somewhere between 40-50% of the design and equipment business for about $150 million back in 2007.

The equipment business has, of course, also gone poorly.  Nicklaus Golf shut down its US operations recently.

What does Mr. Nicklaus command for a private outing?  A lot, I'm sure.

They add up and aren't known outside the lucky few.
