As a lifelong Connecticut resident I’ve been following the 1934 Connecticut Aerials thread which now has Tumblebrook CC as its most recent entry. Each nine has a different designer with Willie Park Jr., Orrin Smith and George Fazio each getting credit in that order. Any other examples out there of 27 or even 36 holes with a different designer for each nine?

World Golf Hall of Fame has two 18 hole courses with three architects:
King & Bear
King & Bear, named for its co-designers and fellow Hall of Famers Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus, is the first and only 18-hole design collaboration between two of golf’s most respected and well-known ambassadors.
Slammer & Squire
Hall of Fame members Sam “The Slammer” Snead and Gene “The Squire” Sarazen served as consultants to course architect Bobby Weed for Slammer & Squire, which offers captivating views of the World Golf Hall of Fame from several holes on the front and back nine.

Tim, when Cobb's Creek re-opens it will have:
1. The original Old course by Hugh Wilson and friends and Hanse Golf Design
2. A new 'Karakung' 9 holes by Hanse Golf Design
3. A 9-hole short course by El Tigre.

I have the copy of Thomas’s “Golf Course Architecture in America” that he originally owned. Weird eh.
