Excellent book for developers, architects and contractors.July 7, 1998 joeh@estimating.org(Sarasota, FL) This is a great book for those interested in the prime factors involved in designing and constructing a golf course. The examples given are clear and easily understandable. The chapter on estimating construction costs is great for those interested in budgeting for new course construction.
