Old Course Routings

[mattm16]

Is there any site that anybody knows that will show older course routings?  For example, the course routing at Huron Hills in Ann Arbor when it was made, and the changes over the years?  Or the course routing for the course in Birch Run, MI?

You mean ‘ ranking’ ? Or you mean aerial photos of the original layouts?

The best way to do it is to Google something like " Course name before and after" and you may get the results you are after. I don't think there's a specific site, just references to some places. For example:

Aerial photos of the original layouts.  Or scans of old course scorecards.  I collect scorecards.

Olde Bass River Golf Course in Yarmouth, Massachusetts. Built in 1902 and redone in 1921 by Donald Ross. Great course not particularly hard but fun to play with interesting holes and great views. Also a great club house.
