Description

Round of golf for three at Kittanssett in Marion, MA.

Only recently, with the discovery of some original blueprints, has it been conclusively established that the ocean side, links like Kittansett, long thought to be the product of an amateur architect, Frederic Hood, was actually the work of well known course architect William Flynn, who also designed Shinnecock and Cherry Hills. Credit that revelation to authors Wayne S. Morrison and Thomas E. Paul, who reveal that and much more in their massive 2,260 page biography of Flynn entitled The Nature Faker, William S. Flynn, Golf Architect. Credit Gil Hanse with restoring the bunkers without the aid of those Flynn plans. Instead, he used old aerial photographs.
