  • Director of Golf Course Operations Profile: Lancaster Country Club Lancaster, Pa
    DIRECTOR OF GOLF COURSE OPERATIONS PROFILE: LANCASTER COUNTRY CLUB LANCASTER, PA Lancaster Country Club is seeking a Director of Golf Course Operations with exceptional agronomic and communication skills. Candidates should have a passion for the game of golf, classic golf course architecture and a history of providing firm and fast golfing conditions. Click here to view a brief video about this opportunity. LANCASTER COUNTRY CLUB Founded in 1900, the Lancaster Country Club moved to its current location in 1913. In 1919, the club hired the golf course architect, William Flynn. Along with the likes of A.W. Tillinghast and Donald Ross, Flynn is considered to be one of the most significant and influential designers of the "Golden Age" of golf course architecture. Although most of his work is found around Philadelphia, his most recognizable work is outside the area at places like Cherry Hills Country Club in Denver, The Cascades in Virginia, and Shinnecock Hills on Long Island. The Flynn course evolved over the next 25 years under the watchful eye of Flynn and eventually crossed the Conestoga River in the 1940’s. The Flynn course requires a balance of long and short hole skills as well as strategic play and rewards accuracy as well as creativity. The course presents a strategic challenge to the skilled professional yet remains playable for the average golfer. The Highlands Nine was built in the 1990’s and has recently undergone a bunker renovation program, led by Forse Design, that incorporates Flynn’s design strategy and bunker style Lancaster hosted the U.S. Women’s Open in 2015 setting records for attendance with over 135,000 spectators.

  • World Atlas Of
    WORLD ATLAS OF THE GREATEST COURSES AND HOW THEY ARE PLAYED ORIGINS OF THE GAME At its heart, golf is a natural game. Although there is some question whether or not it derived fromthe Dutch game of kolven, which was played on the open ice to a target but not a hole, the game of golf evolved to its present form on the coastal links of Scotland. pen land near the coast, too sandy for 0 farming, supported the growth of fine­ bladed grasses, providing pastures that were loosely maintained by herds of grazing sheep, horses and cows. The high northern latitudes provided long summer days, so that the Scots could venture out for an evening of sport after a full day of work, and the Gulf Stream currents provided weather mild enough to play nearly all year round. On the links a makeshift ball could be hit great distances and still found at the other end to be played on. Thus the game of golf was born. THE EARLIEST COURSES The original courses and clubs were formed in coastal towns by local players. There were no accepted standards for golf courses, so each was adapted to the size and shape of its setting. Leith Links, on the outskirts of Edinburgh, had just five holes, while St Andrews's long strip of undulating turf (see page 40) provided room for 11 holes out and 11 back on the same route, and the Old Musselburgh Links (inside a horseracing track) is the oldest nine in the world, unchanged since 1870. None of these holes was long by today's stan­ dards, since the best players could achieve drives of only 160-180 yards (146-165 metres) with feather­ stuffedballs and the rudimentary clubs.

  • The Far Flung Flinns
    The Far Flung Flinns Chapter 6 THE AMERICAN FLINNs The following pages are the result of twelve plus years of research, and yet I feel we have only scratched the surface. I never dreamed there were so many Flinns. This effort, which we so naively thought would be so easy, has consumed countless hours, much travel, and endless trips to libraries, a lot of letter writing, telephone calls, e-mails, and a lot of head scratching. Yet it is one of the most rewarding jobs we have ever tackled. My telephone friend and distant cousin, a transplanted Arkansawyer, named Bob Cawly, now a Yankee who lives in Massachusetts’s merits much gratitude for his brilliant analysis in finding and isolating the earliest American Flinns We will welcome correspondence and will communicate with all who are interested in this awesome heritage. All additions or corrections on your specific limb of the family tree, which we may have omitted, or maybe got someone’s name, or position, wrong, will be enthusiastically appreciated. Stories and legends about any of our extended family will also be gratefully received, and worked into future versions with proper credit and permission, of course. Well, the first thing we had to do was to look into the name FLINN. From numerous sources, including an Irish researcher named McLysaght and one named John O'Hart, we found that the original Gaelic name was O'Fhloinn, and came from the word flann, which means red or ruddy in complexion, including red hair. In a certain context of Irish colloquial speech, it meant blood, as in "Captain Blood" the pirate, who did indeed descend from the ancient Flinns.

  • United States Naval Academy Golf Club Annapolis, Maryland the United States Naval Academy Golf Club Is a National Golf Treasure
    A Golf Course Master Plan for: United States Naval Academy Golf Club Annapolis, Maryland The United States Naval Academy Golf Club is a national golf treasure. Designed by William Flynn in 1944, it serves as his last design that remains in existence. Flynn who is famous for his work at Shinnecock Hills, Merion, Cherry Hills, Indian Creek, the Cascades, and numerous Philadelphia area courses, was a master of golf strategy and his design elements are timeless. His work at the United States Naval Academy Golf Club put it among the greatest academic institution golf facilities. It has the charm and classic nature of C.B. MacDonald’s Yale Golf Course, the strength and strategy of Alister MacKenzie’s Scarlet Course at Ohio State, and the graceful lines of play of George Thomas’ Stanford Golf Course. All it is missing is a renovation and awakening of it elements. n early 2013, McDonald Design Group was commissioned by the United States Naval Academy Golf Club to review the Golf Course Restoration Plan completed Iin 2007. The purpose of this reassessment was to update and enhance the original plan so that it generated the best course of action to completely revitalize the facility. The result is a comprehensive Master Plan that addresses all the needs of the golfers who play the US Naval Academy Golf Club. Additional considerations were also added for the Midshipmen Golf Teams. Rear Tees have been located to stretch the golf course to over 7,000 yards. Multiple Practice opportunities have been incorporated to allow for exciting and realistic feedback that will give the teams a much needed home for dedicated preparation.
