IMHO people who are into golf architecture put much more emphasis on choosing a golf archie than the ones that actually do the choosing.  The guy who is choosing for a place like ANGC is not enamored with golf design or golf architects.  He just make a choice from a couple of the flavors of the day.  If he's a jock sniffer then he goes TW or JN otherwise a few more can be in the mix.  The other archies who choose to fight this battle will be frustrated.   There is the celebrity side of this business and the "git er done" side and if you get caught in the middle you are f**ked.  This site digs the celebrity side....

It is curious that on a site dedicated to the history of golf course architecture, so few posters seem concerned with the history of one of the most important historic courses in the world when considering a replacement for the current consulting architect.

Is this only hypothetical, or is ANGC looking for another architect?

Jim -


The question that a started this thread is purely hypothetical as far as I know.

I think that mostly stems from a recognition of the reality that ANGC would be unlikely to be too concerned with history when it comes to this decision, based on basically everything they've ever done.
