Tom Weiskopf, and his head designer Phil Smith spent a couple of days looking over the courses at Lahontan. I was privileged to be here at Lahontan through the construction of the 18 hole course in 1997, and the par 3 course in 2003. Tom has made more than 20 visits during those construction periods, so walking the courses with him was not a new experience for me last week, but on every visit I learn something new from his perspective, and experiences. I am always impressed with his passion, and dedication to his craft, and his love for the courses here at Lahontan.
The biggest change that is being talked about is a redesign of the practice facility. Drawings are being worked on, and there will be conceptual pictures for the Board to consider in the coming months. The changes we discussed are dramatic, and unique. Fitting for Weiskopf and Lahontan.
