The thing with the MacDonald/Raynor templates was, they were identical, save the Redan/Reverse Redan element.

Well, not really.  Raynor used the Redan green on a par 4 sometimes, eg. the first hole at The Creek.  And the Redan green at NGLA is entirely different than the Redan green at Shoreacres.


I have repeated myself, too, but I’m pretty sure I haven’t used one particular green design as often as this.

Scott Warren:
The Yale, Fishers Island & National redans are all incredibly different holes and they’re all within 50 miles of each other and built within 15 years (Fishers and Yale opened the same year).


The MacRaynor templates were always just that. Not facsimiles.

Thomas Dai:
I believe I’ve read it suggested that another favourite template is a long, straight par-5 with a boundary line immediately adjacent to one side of the hole and with bunkering on the opposite side particularly short of the green.

That’s what came to my head before reading the article as well
