Over time, every golf course will find the need for renovation. The impetus behind the renovation will be unique to each course, but that impetus can ultimately be attributed to age and the environment. Some golf courses age more gracefully than others. Those that were well conceived, properly constructed and adequately maintained can postpone the aging process, but age will eventually take its toll. The aging process becomes apparent in several ways. It can appear in diminished infrastructure performance, declining turf quality, the impact of advancements in golf equipment on playability or in the dated appearance of the golf course.
Architect’s Conceptual Renderings during the Renovation Design Process
JMP’s experience in golf course renovation and restoration is extensive. Our projects range from the renovation of a single green, tee or bunker, establishing turf reduction programs, to the creation of Long Range Master Plans and the total redesign and reconstruction of the entire golf course.
Many of our renovation projects possess historical significance or such intrinsic beauty that they require a very delicate “Restoration” approach to modifications and improvements. Other projects are in such poor condition or they are so devoid of character that they require an approach that provides entirely new infrastructure and a dramatic new design style. Regardless of the design approach or the scope of the improvements, JMP has extensive experience in the Art of Renovation.

“In undertaking a renovation or remodeling project, we are first and foremost committed to improving the playing experience and appearance of the golf course. At the same time, however, we never lose sight of the underlying qualities which exist in the layout, and our efforts must successfully enhance these qualities.” Bob Moore, Jr.
