The architectural history at Lake Merced Golf Club in the San Francisco Bay Area is varied and last year, we documented Gil Hanse and his team's efforts to restore the course to its Alister MacKenzie-era roots.
A huge thanks to Lake Merced Golf Club for access to their historical photos and to Hanse Golf Course Design.

The way Gil said “Rees Jones had a couple of projects” was hilarious. Awesome video, can’t wait to see it at the event.

Haha it was great. He should probably be thanking Rees though. Tons of restoration work for Gil's team based upon terrible Rees Jones work in the '80s and '90s

SF Club, Cal Club, Olympic, Lake Merced, Harding Park. All amazing courses all in such a small area. Just down the rode in the Peninsula there are some pretty good ones as well.

Played sfgc the other day with a long time member and asked him about lake Merced while we were standing on the first green, I pointed to it. He was amazed we could so easily see it. He hadn’t noticed. Ha!

Where was all this gil content filmed? It’s always the same room but he’s talking about 20 different courses.

Looks like a better US Open venue than LACG

I really dislike the fake manipulated bunkers with a zillion fingers and curves. Too many look like gingerbread creations that add nothing to the golf experience.
