The ability to manage golf course improvement projects is an important role of the superintendent. The golf course is an ever-changing environment and requires constant review and adjustment to maintain proper conditions. I have had the opportunity to be associated with a complete course build at CostaTerra, and many smaller in-house projects as well. My wide range of experience in course construction gives me the confidence required to lead a club through any project they wish to complete successfully.
Some highlights of the CostaTerra course build include: 150,000m3 of earth works, 1,400 trees, 300,000 native plants, 60 acres of turf, 1,200m3 of rock dust, designed by architects Logans and Fazio.
A few images of the construction process are included below.
