"The profession of designing, constructing, and maintaining golf courses is one that may only be acquired through real ability and practical experience; one that may not be entered by merely hanging out a shingle. Call in a greenkeeper and constructor of unquestioned merit. Adhere unwaveringly to the expert advice which you have paid for."
A. W. Tillinghast, legendary golf course architect
Armed with the knowledge of contemporary golf course construction and agronomic practices, Dale Wesselman has the distinctive blend of talent and "in the trenches" field experience to ensure an end product of the highest quality.

Golf course development is a highly specialized and technical business that requires a wide array of skills, from the initial consultation with the architect to opening day and beyond. Without skilled leadership and quality construction along the way, a golf course will never achieve its full potential.
Finding the right professional to direct each phase of the golf course development process is no easy task. Without the necessary specialist in place at the optimum time, the process can be disastrous. With Dale Wesselman you get a unique, poised and competent three-in-one professional for more efficient, seamless transitions between the various phases of the development process.
First, as Project Manager, Mr. Wesselman interacts with the client, the golf course architect, and the rest of the construction team to recognize the vision for the golf course. Second, he applies his specialized grow-in skills to implement practical grassing solutions to quickly and efficiently establish the different turfgrass playing surfaces that bring out the beauty of the golf course design. Third, Mr. Wesselman's background as a Golf Course Superintendent allows him to provide clear and thorough grow-in and maintenance programs, as well as hands-on training.
Ongoing course maintenance after opening is a critical aspect that is often overlooked. To maximize the potential of the golf course, it is paramount that the maintenance programs are specifically designed towards the natural environment of the course and the requirements and resources of the client. Thus, a competent and experienced superintendent, such as Mr. Wesselman, with his diverse skills is essential in preserving the client’s expectations, as well as the architect’s vision and philosophy for the golf course.
