Eric Richardson, Director of Grounds at Essex County Club in Manchester Massachusetts, may be the hardest working turf manager in the golf industry. He has taken on one of the most iconic golf courses in the industry and made it better. Eric has big shoes to fill at Essex, as he is one of only a few superintendents to hold the title in its over 120-year history. On that list of former superintendents is the architect Donald Ross. The Essex Club's history is rich and the house that Ross lived in during his time there is still on the property. However, the real story here are the amazing changes that Eric and his team have made for the better on this property. He was able to bring this course back to the original Ross design and expose rock outcroppings not seen in decades. Tree removal was a focus, and the results created unbelievable new views of the club house and golf course.
