Characteristics
"I consider the New Forest site to be the best I have ever worked with. Indeed, I believe that New Forest is the best golf course I have yet designed.”
Golf is progressing in many ways. Modern equipment and big, strong players are totally overpowering many courses. At New Forest such tactics are unlikely to be successful. The course is one that is designed to respond to the challenges that the game is experiencing. Thought off the tee will be rewarded much more than raw power.
New Forest restores that balance whereby the less strong but canny player, with good course management skills, can compete against his stronger hitting opponent. Generous areas for high handicappers are built in to the design where greens are not sought in par figures, but make no mistake: this is a real test for the big boys, if it is set up to be so.
We believe that the course blends happily with its surroundings. Most important of all was to use the beauty that nature has given, to highlight trees and water and give golfers the chance to notice.
