    Total Transformation at Palo Alto Hills G&CC: EW Podcast with Andrew Morgan

      Original Publish Date: 06/29/2023

    morgan_th.jpgIt is always a thrill when a 65 year old golf course gets a complete transformation.  That is exactly what Andrew Morgan, Golf Course Superintendent, oversaw at Palo Alto Hills G & CC in Northern California. In fact that transition earned them the Runner Up title at Golf Digest for Best Transformation of the Year.

    In this conversation with Joel Simmons, Andrew talks about how it took him and his team years to get the reconstruction project approved and the endless hours that it took talking to committees and members to get everyone to see the vision.

    They started by creating a very elaborate master plan with architect Brian Costello. When passed through committee it was rejected, but Andrew and his team were persistent. Eventually the club saw the vision and today that vision is shining through; Palo Alto Hills is nothing short of spectacular.

    Andrew is a soils guy and knew he needed to make changes to the foundation of the property to make a sustainable environment for the new project. A fascinating and very informative conversation with a superintendent worth getting to know.
