DAVID STONE- THE HONORS

Dec 21st, 2009
by Will Smith.

Tim Liddy, ASGCA, recently visited The Honors Course in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He spent time reviewing this top 100 golf course with a client from Savannah and then spent time with the superintendent David Stone. David, the only superintendent that is a member of the Tennessee Golf Hall of Fame, showed Tim his work with the declining population of song birds. “We all know golf courses, with wetlands and turf, are great filters for urban watersheds but David’s work further illustrates how golf courses can be a great friend to the environment,” Liddy said. ” The Honors Course represents the best in golf on many levels; golf course architecture, the environment, turf science and amateur golf.”

    Will,
    I was an undergrad student at UGA when you were getting your MLA. I didn’t get a chance to take your golf course architecture course. My friend Patrick Taylor took it and loved it. I wish I could have taken it as well.
    My grandfather is a member of the Honors and I have played it with him and my brother when we were growing up. It is his favorite course. He is now 92 but still goes up there to play. Most of his friends that he used to play with either can’t play or have passed away so my brother and I try and play with him up there every time we get back home. It is a tremendous course and I have a ton of great memories there. If you ever have the opportunity to stop at it then please do.
    I hope that you are doing well and that this economy has not effected you as severely as others.

    Thanks,
    David Lorberbaum
