What Our Clients Have to Say

What is it like to work with Jerry Pate Design? Our clients share their experiences.

Christopher Kariher
Senior Project Manager at STOA Architects
“It’s always a pleasure teaming up with Jerry Pate Design. Their creative design solutions are well communicated both graphically and verbally. The entire team is responsive to requests and prompt with design deadlines. They study the architecture as well as the site in order to create a cohesively designed space enjoyed by our end users.”
Ron Whitten
Senior Editor, Architecture at Golf Digest
“Pate is the genuine article … a thoughtful creative artist, someone who’s downright brainy when it comes to golf design.”
Michael T. Horton
Contract Manager at HOAR Construction, LLC
"On Pensacola’s Community Maritime Park Owner’s Representative Services: “From day one it was apparent that Jerry Pate Design’s number-one objective was to build the best possible facility for the citizens of Pensacola and do it in the most economical way possible while keeping the project on schedule, within budget, and without issues.”
Jason Lusk
Creative Director and Travel Editor at Golfweek
The restoration will be done by Jerry Pate Design, the company owned by the winner of the 1976 U.S. Open and the 1982 Players Championship. After that latter victory, Pate threw Dye into the water on the new Players Stadium Course at TPC Sawgrass that Dye had recently designed ... The updates to Teeth of the Dog will be the first large-scale work to the course since it opened.
Richard Humphreys
Golf Course Architecture
"Pete Dye's Teeth of the Dog at Casa de Campo in the Dominican Republic is widely considered the best course in the Caribbean. It opened in 1971 and Pete and his wife Alice, who had a winter home on the course, continued to tweak the layout for nearly half a century. Pro golfer Jerry Pate was the lowest scorer when USA won the 1974 World Amateur Team Championship on the course, and he has been a regular visitor since. He was a friend of the Dyes — he and Pete memorably shared a dip in the lake at the eighteenth at TPC Sawgrass following Pete's victory at the inaugural Players tournament in 1982 — and with his senior designer Steve Dana is now course consultant for Casa de Campo. In 2025, Pate and Dana will renovate the Teeth of the Dog."
John S. Carr
President at Pensacola Country Club
“It was truly a pleasure when I heard that Jerry Pate and Steve Dana were handling the design and supervision for the redesign of Pensacola Country Club. They provided the leadership and produced a first-class product on time and within budget. Their professionalism and dedication resulted in our course being named the 2007 Renovation of the Year by Golf Inc. We are very happy with the results.”
