One name, multiple top-notch designs, an enduring Michigan golf legacy: Jerry Matthews. Jerry has artfully crafted some of the best courses throughout the state, a list which includes names like The Grand Hotel Golf Course, Timber Ridge, Twin Lakes and several of the Gaylord Golf Mecca to boot. Jerry's expertise, forged by experience, was sought in an effort to overhaul Falcon Head Golf Club, to much positive effect.
Jerry has an unrivaled approach of seamlessly stitching together both man-made design and nature as crafted by nature, and his philosophy is simple:

– Demonstrate a reverence and a respect for the history and traditions of golf
