Bobby Weed
Robert C. Weed, Jr., ASGCA (born April 13, 1955) is a golf course designer, builder, and protégé of Pete Dye. Weed's work includes Tournament Players Club courses, the ''Slammer and Squire'' at World Golf Village, and the redesign of the Mark Bostick Golf Course at the University of Florida. His designs are frequently included on lists of best courses in golfing publications.〔Duncan, Derek: ("Architect Interview: Bobby Weed Steps to the Forefront" )〕 ==Early years== Bobby Weed was born in Irmo, South Carolina to parents Robert C. and Margie Johnson Weed. Robert, Sr. worked in construction, but his grandparents were farmers. The Weed family farm was large, and some of the land was sold to a developer who built the ''Coldstream Country Club''. Bobby learned to play golf when he was ten, and while a teenager, convinced his father to allow him to use a family soybean field near the golf course to build a driving range because the club didn't have one. Bobby did much of the work himself. Thirty years later, the Weed family still owned it.〔 He played varsity golf and baseball and graduated with the class of 1973 at Irmo High School. Weed played on the school's golf team while attending Presbyterian College, then transferred to Lake City Community College in north Florida,〔 where he enrolled in the ''Golf Course Operations and Landscape Technology'' program, recognized as one of the finest in existence.〔(College Board Network: College & University search-Lake City Community College )〕
