My father was a golf pro in Connecticut for 50 years and in the winters he was the head pro at such places as Doral, El Conquistador in Puerto Rico, and The Fountains in Palm Beach. My mother was also an LPGA pro involved from the begining. She is 89 years old and still playing. So needless to say I grew up around golf and played many of the top courses all over. I worked for my father at a very young age and was his assistant through the 1980's. At that time my family and a partner bought the Inn and Restaurant in Rangeley. What happened over all the years is a long story. When my father suddenly died in 1991, I went to Longshore C.C. in Westport Conn., where he was head pro for forty five years, and I ended up returning to Maine with a lot of his golf equiptment. I built a scenic driving range, practice facilty and George Buck Golf School. I then decided to build two golf holes for classes and practice. I wanted to make them very difficult and then decided to continue on until now. This course is designed to give you a different experience every time you play it, and it really does. It has five tees on each hole - all of them different. We have a lot of members who are average golfers and they all know their way around the course always having a great time. Then we have a lot of the best players in the area, ask any one of them and they will tell you that they love the excitement of this course. Our greens are multilevel and have incredible breaks, they are enjoyable to play on, they are as good as any greens you will see anywhere. It was easy for me to design this course, I guess from being around golf my whole life and playing so many great courses I picked up many ideas that I used when building the Evergreen Golf Club. I hope everyone who enjoys the game of golf comes up and play this great course, it is surely not your typical nine hole course. You will have to play it a few times to get to know it, and that's alright. We'll enjoy welcoming you back.
Thank You
