The Golfclub Bergisch Land commissioned our office on the basis of our masterplan. The main guiding principle of this concept was to renovate the greens, but to largely preserve their modeling. The modeling should only be changed on those greens or on certain green sectors, where the surface inclinations due to today's usual mowing technique and speeds or as a result of settlements no longer allowed fair putting.
The surrounding bunkers were also included in the renovation, except for those that had already been upgraded in recent years. Needless to say, we used the same design here to give the whole course a uniform style. The renovation was not restricted to the greens themselves, but also extended to the approach areas, the surrounding areas, and the bunkers they feature. Once again, that ensured all green complexes presented the same good looks.
Golfclub Bergisch Land placed an order with us based on a plan we had drawn up. The main principle behind our idea was to renovate the greens while largely preserving their existing modelling. It was only necessary to remodel greens or sectors where the surface inclination prevented fair putting due today’s mowing methods and speeds, or due to ground settling.
Renovation: 2007/2008

Tradition verpflichtet - Tolle Grüns dank Ex-Clubmeister Christoph Städler. Der angesehene Golfplatzarchitekt hat alle 18 Grüns und Approachzonen neu aufgebaut. Zum Mannschafts-Europapokal der Damen befanden sich die Puttflächen in einem exellenten Zustand - fast auf Tourniveau.

Der Charakteristik des Bergischen Landes entsprechender hügeliger Platz mit altem Baumbestand, großzügige Fairways mit modernem Konturenschnitt. Teils stark gebunkerte und stark hängende Grüns sowie Bäche, die die Spielbahnen immer wieder kreuzen und spielstrategisch geschickt angelegte Teiche bieten ein abwechslungsreiches Spiel.
