Head Golf Professional
Deadline: 09/15/2023
Hannastown Golf Club was founded by Thomas Jamison, an Oakmont member. He lived in Greensburg and wanted a private course. The initial nine holes were built in 1919 by Emil “Dutch” Loeffler, the superintendent at Oakmont Country Club. For 80 years, the club was a 9-hole facility. 1997, Hannastown added an additional 9 holes. Expanding the Club The original 9 was influenced by Loeffler’s experience at Oakmont, with fall-away greens, a long par 3 similar to #8 at Oakmont, and a final green tied into the practice putting green. The new 9 and the old 9 had to be intermingled. The old 9 has old-style greens that are pure Poa annua, and the new 9 has USGA-spec greens with bentgrass. The New 9 The new 9 has smaller greens that feature some interesting slopes and mounds in the center of the greens. These greens tend to penalize you if you try to short-side yourself by creating difficult chips over the center mound to a green that slopes away. If you do not miss on the short side, you usually have an easier uphill chip. The Course Today The course is now 6,668 yards and plays to a par of 70. There are five par 3s and three par 5s. The course rating is 72.5, and the slope is 132 from the tips. Total annual rounds played 20,000 – 22,000. Current membership is at 350+. The Head Golf Professional will oversee the total golf operation and services offered including the Pro Shop, driving range, short game facility and outside operations. The position will promote an exceptional “golf experience,” and provide excellent services and programs for all our members and guests. The Head Golf Professional reports directly to the Board of Directors. He/she shall keep the President and the Golf Committee Chairperson informed of activities and any problems in the operation of the Golf course and other areas of responsibility.
