About Us
- Mr. Messier is President of Messier Golf Design based in Fairview, TN. He began his golf course architecture career in 1995 in a small two-person firm in New Hampshire. The highlight of his short tenure with this firm was being involved with the mapping of Winged Foot West Course in 1996 for preparation of the 1997 PGA Championship. In 1997 he moved to Nashville, TN to continue his development as a golf course architect with another small firm, Kevin Tucker Design Group. During his nearly 15 years, he ascended to vice president and was responsible for managing all services throughout the entire project. This included working closely with the client to achieve the maximum benefit for the project budget. He was responsible for the coordination of all phases of development with both in-house staff, outside consultants and contractors. Project scope of services included all phases of development from initial site investigation and layout through final construction documents and construction observation. While with this firm, he was involved with over twenty-five course projects (new and renovations combined). A requirement with all of these projects entailed weekly site visits during construction to ensure the design intent and construction methods were held to the highest standards
- Messier Golf Design believes in a “team” and “hands-on” approach to the delivery of their golf course products. It is only through collaboration of the participants, site review and the study of design options that the best results can be achieved. Because Messier Golf Design is committed to the “hands-on” approach, he purposely limits himself to only a few projects at a time so that he has adequate time for each project.
- Marc believes that each course should be an individual “art form” appropriate to the characteristics of the site.
"Marc is a talented designer as well as project planner that is detailed oriented. I have had the pleasure of working many projects with him and it is quite common for his clients to refer him to others and even invite him to join in on other projects clients may have."
