The Birck Boilermaker
Golf Complex
I have worked for both former superintendent Jim Scott & current superintendent Kyle Post for a collected 5 years as an employee of the Birck Boilermaker Golf Complex. Here are two videos that showcase what it is like to work for a PGA level Pete Dye Designed Golf Complex. Ackerman-Allen was redesigned by Pete Dye in 2016, and Kampen-Cousler continues to grow each year in the standards of what is a Pete Dye Designed Golf Course. Drone work was done by my good friend Connor Klinkhamer. Producing, Cinematography, Editing, Directing by Benny Franklin.
