Description
Summary:More than 235 Jack Nicklaus courses have been installed throughout the world. His courses are often challenging but they are all playable. This volume reveals how he builds his courses and includes plans, diagrams and many useful tips on how to play the game itself. At least 30 Nicklaus courses have been ranked in various Top 100 lists, from Shoal Creek in Birmingham, Alabama, with its sharply etched bunkers and rock-strewn creeks, to Castle Pines outside Denver, carved through a mile-high site that affords stunning views of the surrounding mountains. In this book, Nicklaus reveals how he builds his courses and shares the secret of how to "read" a golf hole and play it well.
