Next Stop: Dismal River (Mullen, Nebraska)

Course #7: San Francisco Golf Club #12... A.W. Tillinghast's best course

After a 2 month stretch where I saw 36 different golf courses (listed bellow) I am moving to Dismal River Golf Club in Mullen, Nebraska. This will be part-2 of the Renaissance Golf Design construction phase. Not exactly sure what I am in for yet, but I'm sure it will involve a lot of landscape rakes and sand dunes!

To see pictures from the project in Mullen, Nebraska check out the Renaissance Golf Design website: http://www.renaissancegolf.com/news/current_work__nebraska/

Want to know more about our famous neighbors Sand Hills Golf Club always ranked #1 Modern Golf Course... This YouTube video is amazing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCXQmH48CZs&feature=share

For more information on the new course at Dismal River:

Here are 2 links to an golf architecture website called www.golfclubatlas.com with pictures of the site and some of the construction work that had begun. I do not recommend reading all of it, as its lots of bs from random internet nerds, Doak writes a bunch, and so does Chris Johnson who is owner #3...

What they dont explain is this project is super low on money, and has gone bankrupt 2x. Looks like I will be doing a lot of hand raking...

Pictures are scattered through the pages on each thread.
