Carrick Design uses the latest in Computer aided drafting and design technology through every stage of the golf course design and construction process. Starting from the initial slope analysis and site inventory, we work with a full-featured cad suite to ensure the accuracy of our layouts and to realize the full potential of each site.

Using a full spectrum of illustration software Carrick Design explores each design from numerous perspectives including plan views, sectional diagrams, detailed colour renderings and even fully 3-dimensional models, walk-throughs and fly-overs.

An important part of the Carrick Design service package is our continued efforts to stay on the cutting edge of technological advances in golf course architecture and design visualization. Continually updating our technology allows us to share information with our clients and other consultants as the technology evolves. We strive to provide our clients with the best available tools for visualizing the golf course, creating excitement, driving sales and designing the best possible golf course each site has to offer.

Our advanced techniques in 3-dimensional golf course visualization not only help to communicate our ideas for presentation purposes, but also aid in obtaining approvals for construction and clearly illustrating design intentions for contractors and shapers. Being able to demonstate our design ideas with 3-dimensional renderings helps us to shorten the time it takes to reach approval point on earth work and rough shaping stages; cutting down on overall construction time and cost.

"The best ideas, concepts or plans are absolutely useless unless they are ultimately embraced and implemented.  Golf course managers are frequently frustrated when sound proposals are shot down by committees, Boards of Directors or members.  The computer imaging techniques used by Carrick Design Inc. are in my opinion, the greatest tools available for graphically illustrating the true scope of new construction or renovation projects, accurately depicting the finished product. The pictures that were generated for our green site reconstruction project, not only sold the concept , but generated excitement and developed a high level of confidence amongst the decision makers at my club."
