Every round of golf is impacted by three key design elements, regardless of geographic location, topography, motif, dimensions, or type of golf course.  These elements are  Strategy, Aesthetics, and Conditioning.  Simply stated, strategic quality is what one feels as he or she plays the course.  It has to do with the overall course routing, how holes turn left, right, or straight, directions of holes as related to wind and sun, how slope impacts one’s stance, how hazards are situated, varying lengths of holes, uphill verses downhill, upwind verses downwind, angles from tee to landing areas, how greens are designed for size, shape, angle of centerline, and a host of other issues that greatly impact the player’s experience.  All of these conditions impact the player’s level of enjoyment.  We begin by reviewing a property with the owner and discussing the options for the course layout.

 

Once chosen as Architect of Record, we produce as many  routing options as necessary to maximize golf (and housing, if a golf/real estate community).  We study the property and its natural aesthetics closely, making sure to preserve the environment as much as absolutely possible.  Our goal is to blend the course with the natural features of the property. The more one walks the property the more it is possible to appreciate the natural amenities and the best possible routing.

 

We use state of the art golf course design software which places every design feature from tees, greens and fairways to cart paths, basins, bunkers and lakes into digital CAD files. With the information provided in each course plan, Billy Fuller Golf has the ability to produce an accurate cost estimate for every project.

 

The first phase of creating a new course or of renovating an existing course is the production of a Master Plan Design.

 

Following the completion of the Master plan, the next phase is acquiring Bids and Contracts, followed by Construction, the

Grow in Phase and, finally Grand Opening and Beyond.
