Floating an idea for anyone interested in a fictional collaboration, who also has an interest in the Bandon courses. I will post pics tonight, but here's a few basics:
- I am re-using a plot that I've used a couple times so it has some quirks to it already, and currently have 8 holes in various stages of completion, which should be 9 holes in the next day or two.
- The holes are not in order, necessarily, so a co-designer could use the available land to weave in 9 more holes wherever needed, as well as contribute to the existing holes to firm up the final 18 hole routing. (I did leave some coastline available for 1-2 more holes!)
- The concept is to build a course paying homage to the look and design strategies of Pacific Dunes
- In addition to this course, there is room on the plot to produce a second set of inland 18 holes, presumably in the style of Bandon Trails. The co-designer would have full input on the second course and sculpting that area of the plot to achieve the Trails style, along with input on adding details to the plot to make it representative of Bandon.
I am very open to all kinds of ideas and will give any interested co-designer a lot of freedom. The only thing I won't budge on is the Pacific Dunes/Bandon Trails inspiration for the plot, so some familiarity and interest in those courses would be required.
Let me know if you are interested, and more than one collaborator is welcome. If you have experience with collaborations and can help me with the best workflow process, even better!
