Tripp Davis has been intrigued with course design since he was very young. This in-depth interview focuses on the design of this destination course in The Colony, TX, just outside of Dallas. The Tribute is based on Davis' favorite holes and strategic features of the great courses of Scotland. According to Davis, "I believe this program will aid in helping golfers understand this often misunderstood and under apprciated side of the game. A greater understanding and appreciation of the strategy of playing golf will not only help golfers score better, it will help them better enjoy the game and the diverse courses we have to play." In addition to discussing two Par 5s (#3, & #15) and a Par 4 (#7), topics include: - His upcoming book - Using bunkers as visual elements and strategic features - Multiple ways to play a hole - Despite being outside Dallas, the similar terrain features of Scottish courses You can see the specific course features as Davis explains while viewing on Google Earth.
