About Me
- Ian Andrew
- For the past 19 years, I have worked as a Golf Course Architect. In 2006, I opened my own design firm to build the courses that I think golf desperately needs built. Courses that have less earth-moving are less expensive to build and feature far more hand-made detailing to create something special. I am best known for my restoration work, particularly courses originally designed by Stanley Thompson and Walter Travis. I am member of the American Society of Golf Course Architects.

Great article. I'm glad you posted it or I'm sure that most people would never had the chance to read it.
Allandale is intact-except for the 4th green. It was rebuilt because it was prone to flooding. I love the course and if I lived closer to Barrie I would be there all the time. I recommend that people get out to play the course. It's a great 9 hole test and if the bunkers are restored it will look amazing.
Dear Mr. Andrew
There are hard holes.
There are fairly easy holes.
My questions are:
1) What are the playing charcteristics of an intermediate Par 4?
2) What architectural elements make up a hole that players can score birdie/bogey with = frequency?
3) How do such elements differ
depending or the level of player?
4) Could you cite a few examples of such birdie/bogie holes?
