Merrill Hills Long Range Plan

Linked to the hole numbers below, you will find the Long Range Plan for the Merrill Hills Golf Course. It was first developed by Schreiner Golf, Inc located in Kansas.  This plan has had several revisions from its first proposal in 1999.

A smaller Long Range Plan Committee than present, had again reviewed the LRP with respect to prioritizing various projects.  An eye was also given to maintaining characteristics unique to Merrill Hills.

Prioritization also placed a high value on the amount of time the golf course, of part of it, would be out-of-play.  Some projects were reappraised, not because they were bad ideas, but because of the 6 month recovery was thought to be too extreme for the perceived benefit.

The LRP has been, and is to used as a guide.  while it should be adhered to when possible, it is not etched in stone never to be changed.  The plan should benefit all playing levels with challenge, playability, aesthetics, and overall enjoyment.

Any questions please contact the Long Range Plan Committee
