Silent Blog + Trashed Studio = Good Signs


Things have been "good busy" in the studio for the last month and a half. (See image above) Next week we will have some news about at least one large project that will be under construction next year, and a very good chance more to follow. As I look around my studio, I see trash paper sketches everywhere, piles of paper stacked on my desk, and books from my design library strewn about. I know this is a good sign. Another good sign is when my design sketchbook begins to fill up again. I have been ripping through pages the last few weeks. This is where I begin to articulate design ideas that will eventually turn into golf holes.

Another good sign, unfortunately, is a silent blog. (First things first - especially in this economy) I am sure there are plenty of golf architects with very clean offices and plenty of time on their hands to do all the writing they want. Right now, I am fortunate not to be one of them. I must say, it is difficult to stay committed to the blog when there is so much studio work to be flushed out with relatively little time to do it. It is now December and come March, northern golf construction season begins. Only three full months away. Yikes! I can't wait......
