PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Larry W. Flatt has over 45 years experience in the golf business. Literally growing up working on golf courses in North Texas, Flatt attended Texas Tech University in Lubbock, Texas and received his Bachelor of Science in Parks Administration while concentrating his studies in Planning and Golf Course Design. Flatt was employed as Superintendent of Golf Courses in Kansas City, Missouri from 1965 to 1969, Golf Course Superintendent at Overland Park Golf Club, Overland Park, Kansas from 1969 to 1971, Parks and Recreation Director for the City of Overland Park, Kansas from 1971 to 1980, and Community Development Director for the City of Overland Park, Kansas from 1980 to 1989. In 1989, Flatt started Flatt Golf Services, Inc., a golf course design and consulting firm located in the Kansas City Metro Area. In 2002, the offices of Flatt Golf Services, Inc. were moved to Jefferson City, MO where Flatt and his wife Betty were part owners of a daily fee public golf course in Holts Summit, Missouri.

Flatt brings his special and unique experience to bear in his approach to golf course consulting and design services. He has designed several popular and successful public golf courses and directly supervised the day to day construction of these golf courses. He has remodeled and upgraded several outstanding private golf clubs in the Midwest. But, his most unique and beneficial qualifications are the wealth of real world experiences gained as a golf course owner and operator, managing several of the courses that he designed and built. He is a single digit handicap golfer and frequently participates in state and local level senior competitions.
