The long-term mission of the entire staff of Phelps-Atkinson Golf Course Design is quite simply to be recognised by our peers as among the best golf course architects of our era.

With name recognition and 'word-of-mouth' advertising as such important aspects of the golf design business, we are very fortunate to be in a position where Rick Phelps is able to continue to pursue the art of golf course design by building and expanding on the outstanding reputation developed by his father, Dick Phelps. Kevin Atkinson brings his dynamic design talent and his background in golf course construction to our team. Both Rick and Kevin are active members in the American Society of Golf Course Architects, with Rick serving as President in 2011.

We strive to offer clients a wide range of design services, without encumbering the project with a cliché style or an unrealistic design solution. Whether the scope of work involves new construction or renovation, complex land planning, masterplanning or field design, the experience and creativity within the firm are key ingredients to producing exciting design work using time-tested methods and proven results.
