If you run a golf club, own a resort or design courses, you get one builder that says it can self-perform every phase of a new course, renovation or restoration, from site preparation through to landscaping, plus irrigation. Heritage Links is the golf course building division of Lexicon Inc., a steel fabrication and construction group headquartered in Little Rock, Arkansas.

Course building and irrigation you can hire it for

As a golf course construction firm in Lexicon’s construction group, Heritage Links takes on new courses, renovations and restorations, as well as sports fields. Its irrigation work centers on HDPE pipe, with crews trained to fuse pipe and fittings, and also covers PVC systems, pump stations, 2-wire control systems, landscaping and drip irrigation for new courses, course renovations, sports fields and parks.

Contract options that let you choose how the build is run

It can act as construction manager rather than general contractor. It lists four delivery methods it has worked under, Construction Manager (CM), Construction Manager at Risk (CMAR), Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP) and Design-Build.

Before work starts, it can prepare bid and tender documents, run bids and contract awards, negotiate contracts, and handle budgeting and schedule analysis. During the build it offers budget and schedule oversight, subcontractor management, quality control and assurance, and materials procurement.

Courses it has built and where it works

Its published golf projects are spread across Texas, Oklahoma, Arizona, Florida, Nevada, California, New Jersey, Ohio, Mississippi, Hawaii and Puerto Rico. Highlights from its website follow.

• PGA Frisco, Texas, where it built the 18-hole East Course, a 10-hole par-3 course and a two-acre putting course.
• Southern Hills Country Club, Tulsa, with tree clearing, wider fairways, rebuilt greens, bunkers and tees, a new irrigation system and hydronic heating and cooling beneath the greens.
• Trump National Doral Blue Monster Course, Florida, with new bunkers, tees, greens, irrigation, expanded practice facilities and water hazards completed within a six-month construction window.
• Liberty National, Jersey City, built on a remediated former EPA Superfund site and finished in 2006.
• Mossy Oak Golf Course, Mississippi, a Gil Hanse design on which it carried out all scopes of work.
• The Golf Club at Dove Mountain, Arizona, where it completed 18 of the 27 holes of the Jack Nicklaus design.

More recent work includes a 2023 restoration of The Olympic Club’s Lakes Course in San Francisco, a 2023 renovation at Shadow Creek in Las Vegas, new 18-hole courses at Panther National (2023) and Miakka Golf Club (2025), bunker construction at Makai Golf Club in Hawaii (2024), and irrigation projects at Inverness Club (2024) and The Estancia Club (2026).
