Matthews Design Group

Since 1991, I have designed over 45 new courses and renovated over 60. I am widely recognized for my ability to design an upscale golf course for an affordable price. While this is a slight hindrance in fame and fortune, it is very satisfying to help others. My designs reflect a lifetime in golf. I have experienced and know all facets of the golf c... ourse business. I have been a superintendent for public and high end private clubs and I have operated a public course for profit. These experiences influence how I design a course. Challenging and beautiful golf courses can still be efficient to build and operate. I utilize careful stewardship of resources to further the game of golf in challenging times.
