The Met Golfer

I am waiting for meeting so used the time to read Mr. Doak's first column in the Met Golfer. Some great biographical information that is new to me at least. I would post a link, but it was the hard copy in the lobby.

I'm a little biased...nice cover photo of Paramount CC and it's inclusion (and GCA.com's own Brian Chapin) on the related photo essay within.

I'd be curious about the work he's undertaking at Woodway (and Round Hill). I wasn't aware of these assignments.

Good for both clubs though both have had major work done over the last few years by others.  Though IMO Round Hill is Ken Dye's least objectionable renovation it always was a missed opportunity.  Look forward to see where they wind up.

I can't tell you too much about these as I have not been involved directly with either club.  My associate Brian Slawnik has been working at Woodway for a couple of years now ... I grew up three miles from there but I have never played the course.  Meanwhile, Brian Schneider rebuilt all the bunkers at Round Hill last fall and they should be in play as soon as the weather suits.
