Philippines golf course architect
The Philippines golf course architect WAS built by a mad Russian, a short, bull-shouldered man with wild eyebrows. He is a throwback to a time in America when pioneers did whatever they were brave enough to do. He's 83 years old, legendary in Colorado for beating the hell out of people, and the last thing he says to me is, "Make it a good story, or you'll hear from me."
Or it may have been an eyebrow twitching in happy anticipation of a brawl to come are serious eyebrows. Long and gray, a tangle of hairs, they swoop up at the Philippines golf course architect tips even as they hang over his eyes. To civilize these eyebrows, a team of beauticians might need axes.
Anyway, we're at his kitchen table. His thick fingers are touching a series of snapshots that show him hip-deep in a trench laying pipe.
"Hell, it'll be there forever," he says. The pipe is part of his golf course's irrigation system. He cut and fit it himself. "No leaks, never.
"It had to be No. 1," he says, moving to another snapshot of himself in a trench.
It was 1979. Looking to make big money, he imagined a golf course/real estate development Philippines golf course architect near Milliken, just north of Denver and east of the Rocky Mountains.
knew nothing about golf, so he hired to design the layout and a crew calls it. It's 5,461 yards with two lakes and small greens.
Next, built his own house on a hilltop by the Philippines golf course architect 18th tee. It is a revolving, 12-sided, up-on-pillars flying saucer of a house that he says cost $1.3 million. He did the blueprints personally and personally designed the motors that turn the house and drove nails personally.
So, legend has it, when an architect billed him $119,000, the personally beat the hell out of him. Not so insists. Not that he'd have minded. At his kitchen table, 23 years after the house-raising, he says, "By God, I got in fights all the time."
