Renditions-Golf's Grand Slam Experience

Renditions Golf Course offer golf’s “Grand Slam Experience” by replicating 18 famous golf holes from legendary courses in the United States and British Isles

Chambersburg, PA (PRWEB) January 18,2006 -- Life is full of imitations — cloned golf clubs, bad lounge singers crooning contemporary favorites and family-style neighborhood dinner theaters performing famous Broadway shows, all seeking to replicate the original art they copy. But something always gets lost in the translation. After all, it’s hard to duplicate an artistic masterpiece.

Thank God golf courses are immune to the trend. Some classics just can’t be copied or replicated.

Or can they? The true answer is “no,” and that’s the way it should be. But there should also be a way to play some classic golf holes without snuggling up to a member of an incredibly exclusive private club, or traveling halfway around the world to experience the legendary ancient courses of the game.

For those seeking this once-in-a-lifetime experience without the above-mentioned hassles, there’s a pretty darn good imitation just a short drive from the Washington,DC-Balltimore,MD area — Renditions Golf Course.

The five-year-old course offer golf’s “Grand Slam Experience” by replicating 18 famous golf holes from legendary courses in the United States and British Isles — all of which have played host to at least one of golf’s four majors and The Players Championship, golf’s “fifth major.”

“We thought it was a great idea to take some great, time-tested, classic holes from famous golf courses and combine them into one facility where anyone can come and play. We offer an opportunity to play simulations of Augusta National’s Amen Corner, the 17th hole at the TPC Sawgrass and three links-style British Open holes (amongst others) all in one golf round,” said Jeff Sheehan, vice president of William Cole, Inc., Renditions’ parent company.

The trick is in the details. “We really try hard to make it look exactly the same. Where there’s a dogwood, we put a dogwood. Where there’s a pine, we put a pine. We put in azaleas as well (and other flowering plants for the rest of the season). We do whatever we possibly can to make the holes look as close to what you’d see if you actually went there,” Sheehan added.
