After almost seven months of tweaking and gathering pictures and information, Bechtol Golf Design unveiled its multimedia Web site last, in the process marking another milestone in golf course architect Roy Bechtol’s continuing move into the national golf consciousness.
The Web site – which was designed as to be an electronic brochure for Bechtol’s broad and ever-increasing scope of golf course accomplishments – features photo galleries and full-color architectural drawings of 10 courses Bechtol has had a hand in designing and routing.
“We are really excited about being able to use our Web site to show the kinds of things we can do at Bechtol Golf Design,” Bechtol says. “This site offers a snapshot of our company and its various projects, and we are satisfied that it accurately depicts our successes and our beliefs.”
The site (www.bechtolgolfdesign.com) also defines Bechtol Golf Design’s core values, outlines a list of projects Bechtol is currently working on, has links to media outlets that have published stories about Bechtol Golf Design and gives background information on Bechtol, his three companies (including Planned Environments, Inc. and Waters of America) and his staff.
Within the site are links to some of the home pages for courses Bechtol has designed, as well as those courses’ logos, an overview of each of the top 10 projects in Bechtol’s design portfolio and contact information for each of those courses. And there is more to come.
“In the future weeks and months we will add more of Roy’s courses, and their overviews and pictures, to the website, and we will constantly monitor industry newswires and outlets to provide a one-stop update on Bechtol Golf Design, its projects and the courses Roy has designed,” says Steve Habel, Bechtol Golf Design’s media coordinator. “This site is a living, breathing source of information, a vital link to our company and true reflection of Roy Bechtol, the Bechtol Golf Design team and their work.”
