KS4 visit to PGA design consultants July 2006

KS4 made a vocational work visit to PGA Design Consultants in July. They are a company who design golf courses around the world. We saw how the designers model construction of the golf courses on the computer, talked about all the factors that they have to take into account, and the students even tried a spot of golf themselves!

The company have designed and built and amazing amount of golf courses all over the world and it was a very interesting visit!

Getting to understand the topic! A little bit of board room golf.

At the design drawing board - millions of pounds go into the golf courses so they have to be just right!

In the computer section, looking at how it was modeled on computer design.  Who knew so much technology went into making golf courses?
