Doug Smith

Doug Smith designed a collection of courses primarily across the northeastern United States, including several club layouts that reflect regional traditions in course architecture. His portfolio includes Timberlin Golf Club in Berlin, Connecticut; Douglaston Golf Club in Douglaston, New York; Newton Country Club in Newton, New Jersey; and Kulm Golf Club in Kulm, North Dakota.

These courses represent the work of an architect whose designs served regional golf communities during the mid-to-late 20th century. The geographic distribution of his work suggests a practice focused on delivering functional, member-oriented layouts tailored to their specific sites and club needs.

Detailed biographical information about Doug Smith as a golf course architect remains limited in widely available sources. His contribution to American golf architecture is documented through the courses that bear his design work, several of which continue to serve their communities today.
