I'm not sure if this 9 holes at Miami Springs ever got built.  This from the Feb 23, 1958 edition of the Miami News:


Joe,


Looking at old aerials, I think the answer is that some of it got built.   I think possibly all of it did, but then that was revised in the 1980s.

EDIT:  Oops, Sven posted this one already earlier in the thread.

This Tom Bendelow design started as Coquillard Golf Club, now it is the Morris Park CC; this from the September 7, 1924 edition of the South Bend Tribune.

Randolph Park from the July 31, 1957 edition of the Tucson Daily Citizen.




Thanks for this, Joe. Interesting to me as I got around the Randolph courses a fair amount while in school in Tucson.


The North course ("existing" as labeled on the map) was a 1925 William P Bell design. It exists today with essentially the same layout as is seen here, except at some point they moved the 18th tee closer to the 9th, probably to accommodate a recreation center that was built more or less in the area where the old clubhouse was.


The "proposed" course was laid out by Bell's son, William F Bell. It opened in 1961 and was known as Randolph South. It was very much considered the lesser of the two courses. On my first visit to Tucson in 1993 I recall having a few hours to squeeze in some golf before a spring training game at adjacent Hi Corbett Field. The pro said that the South was empty and we might get 12 or even 18 holes in, while we might only get through 9 on the North, but nonetheless he strongly recommended we play the North.


The South was renovated by Ken Kavanaugh in 1996 and ever since has been known as Dell Urich. The course follows the Bell routing as seen in the image proposed above, but Kavanaugh moved a great deal of earth and turned what had been a flat and pretty boring short course into one with a lot more interest. The LPGA played here for a few years (they've also played at the North).


When I was in school, I was equally happy to play either of the courses at Randolph Park, if I had a free afternoon and the funds (and transportation). For courses on similar land, they offered a good contrast of style--the North a longer, very traditional-style course, Dell Urich a shorter course that asked for precision and offered a lot more chances to make decisions, uneven lies and risk/reward.

I'm not sure if this golf course designed by William Mitchell in Rock Tavern, NY ever got built.  I'm confident the GCA crowd can help me out!

Endwell Greens in Endwell, NY in 1966 by Geoffrey Cornish/William Robinson.

Still exists much the same to this day, I believe.

I've not been able to figure out yet if this municipal course was ever built, or if it was, if it still exists.  The town is Richmond, IN.
