Philosophy

Players enjoy breathtaking views, lush fairways and perfect scoring conditions. It is the design teams’ responsibility to enrich the layout by taking the natural landscape and molding it into a golf course that grows the game for all ages and skills. From the smallest detail to the large-scale project WGD’s multi-faceted approach is evident in every project.  Designs or redesigns must reflect sensibility both pragmatic and imaginative, uniting beauty with purpose in the natural and built environments. 


Steve Wolfard is a hidden gem in the golf design industry. He is a rarity in the fact that he has a unique ability to present every facet of the design, funding and building process.
