Dusenberry Design only takes on a limited number of high quality clients and projects each year. This allows us to focus on delivering exceptional service and creativity for each client. Project Delivery Great golf courses are built in the field. Dusenberry Design dedicates extensive time from design partners on-site during construction. Our team manages the construction of the project and executes the shaping of the features. Our 60-plus years of combined experience has indicated the only way to get creative and sophisticated design ideas from paper to the field is hands-on involvement during each stage of construction. Timeless Architecture Dusenberry Design draws inspiration from classic design principles and some of our favorite golf experiences in similar environments and settings around the world. An era when importance was placed on character, aesthetics, and strategic design principles; not on length, difficulty, and penal design. Our team takes that inspiration and crafts a unique design concept for each project. Sandhill Crane Golf Club - Hole 7 Approach Focus on User Experience The user experience is simply the interaction that a person has with the development and the golf course from arrival to exit. We provide professional services beyond the standard golf course design deliverables. Our team is involved in land planning, site design, and the details that have a significant impact on the guest or golfer experience. This separates Dusenberry Design from others in the industry and is critical to achieving our goal of creating unique and exceptional experiences for our clients. Team Approach & Collaboration All of our design team members are involved in each project in a significant manner. We believe strongly that collaboration and exchange of ideas by our team members and client results in a more creative, unique, and character filled finished product. Environmental Sustainability The golf course field of play is part of a larger ecosystem with opportunities to protect, conserve, and regenerate desirable and valuable habitat. Dusenberry Design combines best practices in planning, design and construction to ensure a sustainable environment for the long term operations and maintenance of the golf course. Keney Park Golf Course - Hole 8 Approach Adopt Strategic Design Principles • Emphasize variety and character over length and difficulty. • Provide room to play but preferred position to score. • Accept that there is more strategy in wide fairways with creative approaches and green complexes. • Reject the idea that there is one correct way to play a hole. Interesting holes provide many lines of play, not one path from tee to green. • Consider pace of play. • Reduce and limit use of long rough grass as a hazard. • Well-designed holes and features indicate strategy that is not always obvious, but often revealed through repeat play. • Encourage walking. • Visible hazards and targets. • Emphasize ground contours and allow for running shots in the approach and green surrounds. • Encourage firm turf conditions to allow the ball to roll. • Aesthetics matter and greatly affect player experience and enjoyment. Cornerstone Club - Short Course Approach Maintenance Philosophy The golf course maintenance team are preparing a surface for the playing of a sport. This surface is firm ideally and allows the golf ball to roll. This has many advantages; • It improves the playing experience by allowing the ball to bounce and roll. This is particularly important for
