CYPRESS POINT – BACK NINE
FRENCH CREEK
French Creek Golf Club in Elverson, PA is often overlooked when people discuss Philadelphia golf. Located across the street from Stonewall, the course occupies much more difficult terrain than its neighbor. Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner did a clever job of routing the course to create a fun, playable course. This video (after the jump) [...]
THE HORSE COURSE
I really like this video by Geoff Shackelford about figuring out the land plan at the Prairie Club.

This past spring I spent a little time helping out Jim Wagner of Hanse Golf Course Design at French Creek Golf Club in Elverson, PA. I was there to assist in making a few changes to a number of bunkers mostly due to maintenance issues. This video shows the work that was done [...]
