David McLay Kidd Part 2: His Personal Favorite, a Golf Course You've Probably Never Heard Of

07/15/21 • 29 min

Asking a golf course designer to pick his favorite is like asking a winemaker to choose a preferred varietal. It's not about the course itself, but the people and the experience- both physical & emotional, over a period of years as raw land is transformed and a vision becomes reality. For David McLay Kidd, it's not Bandon, Gamble Sands, Nanea, or his other masterpieces. It's a course that not only changed the landscape, but also reshaped the community and impacted the people around it.
