A follow up volume to the widely acclaimed original, this work includes interviews with leading golf architects from around the world, and examines the factors that now influence course design such as equipment and Tiger. Golf course design is currently a very lucrative career, with new courses springing up all over the world, often in areas that don't posses the natural features and contours of courses of old and that have to be landscaped from the existing terrain. Have you ever thought about the placement of hazards on your home course, or wondered about the bunkering on a dogleg corner? Just what do the terms strategic, heroic and penal really mean for a golfer? Is the championship course the model for all? Golf is a game that turns even the weekend hacker into an armchair architect, an enthusiast for the possibilities of golf course design. Striking the balance between the natural form of the land, and the eye of the artisan is the nub of golf architecture. Leading golf architects from eleven countries present their ideas in this second of two volumes, providing a much-needed international assessment of the principles and practices of golf architecture. Daley has gathered architects' and writers' thoughts on diverse topics such as the impact of equipment technology on design, the effects of hazards on the golfer's psyche, and the influence of pioneer designers on contemporary architects.
